After about 5 minutes of gameplay, my DayZ stops responding and crashes. This is followed by a notification about Data Execution Prevention and so I figure that windows is deliberately crashing DayZ.

I have tried to make DayZ an exception to DEP but it says "You cannot turn off DEP for this program." I searched for answers and found a command for the command prompt to disable DEP entirely, yet this has also not worked!

I love the game but this DEP crash makes it unplayable. I searched hours and hours on the internet for answers/solutions. Many other dayz players have the same problem, but also do not have any solution.
