Fingerprint reader stops regularly at the login screen (HP dv7 notebook)

• Keyboard and mouse stop working at the login screen, but work very well before he gets to connect.

  My keyboard and mouse suddenly stopped working today, I was pressing F11 to try to get the system to boot from a recovery screen and it wouldn't, but when he returned to my screen connection and requested my password it won't let me not use the mouse or the keyboard, I wonder if I accidentally turned off something and if anyone knows how to turn it on turn it back on. I'm using vista on a HP dv5

  Thank you

  Hello Djc618,

  Thank you for your message.  You have a friend or a family member that can allow you to use a keyboard to see if the material can be defective?  You can also try using your keyboard on another computer, if this does not work then you probably have a bad keyboard.
  We can't wait to hear back on your part.
  See you soon

• Skype is stuck on the login screen. E52

  Hello

  For a few months now Skype stops just to the login screen. After I touch my user & pass, I hit connect and that's all. It remains there forever.

  I tried this on Wifi and 3g...

  He used to work before... doesn't bother searching for an answer of all these months because I had no need of Skype. And now I * really * need to use Skype on the move.

  I reinstalled the firmware of Nokia, no go.

  Help, please!

  It works now!

  I created a new Skype account with the app and it connected! Wow.

  Then I disconnected & reconnected since my old Id and it works now as well.

• L540: password accepted anywhere but the login screen

  Hello!

  I was happily using the sensor of fingerprint on my L540 for awhile, until what a few months ago, I reinstalled Windows 7 (Professional, x 64). After setting up everything, and by installing drivers Lenovo, I noticed this problem:

  When I start the laptop and you type the password, it will accept it.* but if I open the dialog to change, Windows will claim that the password that I type is wrong. I tried several times, also copy - paste where she had changed the layout of the keyboard, but just, he does not accept the password that works on the logon screen.
  The same thing happens when I close the laptop and it goes into sleep mode, and then I try to connect again. In this case the only thing that helps is to extinguish completely the laptop and restart.

  For a while it would not also accept the password on the login screen * front * password indication was shown. Of course maybe I just typed it, but it happened very regularly for 1-2 weeks or more. At one point that specific question came not, without changing me anything.

  In short, I can't set up the fingerprint sensor because I have to type the password, and I can't change it to something easier. This particular password wasn't supposed to be typed much. I trusted that the fingerprint sensor would work.

  I thought that it might be caused by one of the drivers, given that the problem started happening immediately, but only a few days after that I want to install Windows. (My memory is a bit blurry, sorry).
  Then I threw most of the drivers I downloaded manually (especially the keyboard driver and fingerprints) and installed a package that installs drivers automatically, but that has not changed anything.

  I have no idea if this would be a problem of Lenovo or a Windows problem. Can you give me an idea where to go with this problem?

  Thank you very much!

  Easiest thing would be just to use the new account. But what about the why, that's happened, I don't really know why. =/

• Blue screen in Vista 7 just after the login screen

  We get a blue error screen 7th on Vista 64-bit SP1 right after the login screen appears.  The blue screen immediately goes, and system restarts (or sometimes just hangs).  I was not able to find the codes of the 7th in the research:

  (took a picture of the screen...)

  STOP: 0x0000007E (oxFFFFFFFFC0000005, 0xFFFFF80002325C87, 0xFFFFFA60165BE3E8, 0xFFFFFA60165BDDC0)

  I am able to boot in safe mode.  Do you have a chkdsk C: /F and which did not help.  Do you have a repair system using the Vista startup disk and that did not help.   Went to safe mode and MSCONFIG and position the clean boot and that did not help.  I tried to update to SP2 and unable to complete safe mode.

  The ideas and the sage advice would be greatly appreciated.

  ===========================================================

  The system has RAID? If so, it's also very suspicious.

  This error is usually a driver problem and display adapter (video) driver is the most suspicious if she
  may be others. Antivirus/antispyware/security programs, equipment (heat) and major software problems
  can also cause the error. When you get to the section of the driver to use the Troubleshoot utility my generic
  methods in the next message and then return to the if necessary troubleshooting tool.

  Have you recently added hardware or drivers updated? Don't forget to look in Control Panel - Windows
  Updates to see if all drivers have been updated it. Other donor opportunities include the antivirus/anti-

  Bug Check 0x7E: SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
  

  Bug SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED control has a value of 0x0000007E. This bug check indicates that a system thread threw an exception that the error handler did not.

  Important info if you received a STOP Code
  
  If you received a blue error screen, or a stop code, the computer stopped abruptly to protect against data loss. A hardware device, its driver or software might have caused this error. If your copy of Windows is shipped with your computer, contact your computer manufacturer. If you purchased Windows separately from your computer, Microsoft provides support. To find contact information for Microsoft or the manufacturer of your computer, Contact Support.

  If you have experience with computers and try to recover from this error, follow the steps in the Microsoft article solution STOP (blue screen) errors in Windows.

  These actions could prevent a mistake like this does not happen:

  1. Download and install updates for your computer from Windows Update device drivers.
  2. Scan your computer for computer viruses.
  3. Check your hard drive for errors.

  SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED parameters

  The following settings appear on the blue screen.

  CAUSE

  SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED bug control is a very common bug control. TO
  interpret, you must identify which exception has been generated.

  Common exception codes are:

  • 0 x 80000002: STATUS_DATATYPE_MISALIGNMENT indicates an unaligned data reference was encountered.

  • 0 x 80000003: STATUS_BREAKPOINT indicates a breakpoint or ASSERTION was met when no kernel debugger was attached to the system.

  • 0xc0000005: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION indicates a memory access violation has occurred.

  For a complete list of exception codes, see the Ntstatus.h file located in theinc directory
  the Microsoft Windows Driver Kit (WDK).

  Solve the problem

  If you do not have to debug this problem, you must use certain basic troubleshooting techniques.

  • Make sure you have enough disk space.
  • If a driver is identified in the bug check message, disable the driver or check with the
  • Reference of the manufacturer for driver updates.
  • Try changing video cards.
  • Check with your hardware vendor for updates to the BIOS.
  • Disable the BIOS memory options such as implementing caching or shading.

  If you plan to debug this problem, you may find it difficult to get a stack trace. Parameter 2
  (the address of the exception) must identify the driver or function that caused the problem.

  If the exception code 0 x 80000003 occurs, a hard-coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but the system
  has been launched with the /nodebug. switch. This problem should occur infrequently. If it occurs repeatedly,
  Make sure that a kernel debugger is connected and the system is booted with the Switch/DEBUG .

  In case of exception code 0 x 80000002, the trap frame provides additional information.

  If you do not know the specific cause of the exception, consider the following questions:

  • Hardware incompatibility. Make sure all new hardware that is installed is listed in the
  • List of Microsoft Windows Marketplace tested products.
  • Service driver or defective peripheral system. A service driver or defective peripheral system can be
  • responsible for this error. Hardware problems, such as the incompatibilities of the BIOS, memory, conflicts
  • and IRQ conflicts can also generate this error.

  If a driver is listed by name in the bug check message, disable or remove that driver. Disable
  or remove drivers or services that have been recently added. If the error occurs during startup
  sequence and the system partition is formatted with the NTFS file system, you may be able to use safe
  Mode to rename or to delete the faulty driver. If the driver is used as part of the system startup procedure
  in Safe Mode, you must start the computer by using the Recovery Console to access the file.

  If the problem is associated with Win32k.sys, the source of the error may be a third remote
  control program. If this software is installed, you can remove the boot of the computer service
  by using the Recovery Console, and then by removing the offending system service file.

  Check the system log in Event Viewer for additional error messages that might help identify the
  device or the driver that generated the bug check 0x7E.

  You can also disable memory cache BIOS may try to resolve the error. You should also
  Run the diagnostics of material, especially the scanner memory, which provides the manufacturer of the system.
  For more information about these procedures, see the manual of your computer.

  The error that generates this message may occur after the first reboot during Windows Setup, or
  Once the installation is complete. A possible cause of the error is lack of disk space for installation and system
  BIOS incompatibilities. For problems during the installation of Windows that are associated with the absence of disc
  space, reduce the number of files on the disk drive hard target. Find and delete any temporary
  the files that you do not have to have files hidden Internet, backup application and.chkfiles files that
  contain fragments of file saved to disk scans. You can also use another hard drive with more drive
  free space for the installation. You can solve the problems of BIOS by upgrading the version of the system BIOS.

• Password changed after you disable the login screen

  Then I disabled my login screen, today and now when I start my computer, it brings me to a page that said 'incorrect password' and then returns to the login screen. Then when I enter my password it does not work. It seems that my password has been changed somehow when I disabled the login screen. In the meantime I can use my fingerprint reader to log on, but if I were to ever lose a finger in the future I wouldn't be able to access my computer. So, how can I reset my password?

  Curiously the admins cannot change her password without having to type the current password, but they can change the password of any other account without knowing the password.

  Not true - see here:

  1. click on the start planet.

  2. type the three letters cmd in the search box.

  3. press on Ctrl + Shift + Enter

  4. click on "run as Administrator".

  5. type the following commands and press ENTER after each:

  NET user "Zach" 123456
  The command above will set the password of the account selected to 123456.

• How to you turn off the user invited on the login screen?

  How do disable you the guest user account on the login screen?

  Basically, I have a brand new Macbook, but can't for the life of me figure out how to get rid of the guest user account.

  Summary:

  • MacBook 2016
  • El Capitan 10.11.6
  • FileVault is enabled
  • Find my Mac is disabled
  • Comments User in users and groups is set to Off

  Tried the following from another forum:

  1. make sure that 'find my Mac' and guest user are disabled, restart;

  2. check if the system integrity Protection is enabled or disabled by running: csrutil status to the Terminal.

  3 if she says ' Protection of the integrity of system status: activated. "go to 4.1.

  4. If not, only 4.4 and 4.7;

  4.1 restart in "Recovery Mode": stop and hold command + R after pressing the power button.

  4.2 go in "utilities > Terminal" and run the command: csrutil disable.

  4.3 restart;

  4.4 open the Terminal and run: sudo touch /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/EFILogin.framework/Resources/EFIResourceBuild er.bundle/Contents/Resources, this will force the update of the connection EFI;

  4.5 reboot (again) in "Recovery Mode": stop and hold command + R after pressing the power button.

  4.6 go in "utilities > Terminal" and run the command: Activate csrutil;

  4.7 reboot and it's fixed!

  4.8 re activate 'Find my Mac' as you wish.

  • FileVault is enabled

  You cannot disable the Guest user. This is especially in the case where you cannot unlock your hard drive. It provides a limited capacity of Safari so that you can access the services of help on the internet.

• At startup, I get to the login screen, but the screen is dead, there is no response to any finger taps.

  At startup. I go as far as the login screen (showing the four accounts). But this screen is dead: there is no response to finger taps or gestures. only by pressing the power button gets a response (immediate panic stop)

  There is a story backward. Yesterday, at the start, I received a popup saying "message wants to use the login keychain, enter the password". I get my password for connection which, until now, the password of the login keychain. He dislikes that pw (he's trembling). Same with "connectsd" instead of "message".  I could send startup, but it was totally insensitive. I use Safari, but the popup remained on the screen.

  Now, today, I can not use my MacBook at all, as described in the first paragraph.

  Help!

  It starts in Safe Mode - that is when you start and press command + R?

• Often fingerprint reader stops working after laptop wakes from sleep (Pavilion dv6)

  I am convinced that the fingerprint reader is fine. There must be a problem with the driver may, something inconsistent with a recent update of the Windows 7 software?

  The scenario:

  • Laptop works very well.  I put on standby when I'm done and use the mousepad to wake him up.  LED fingerprint reader blinks, and I can drag my finger to log on.
  • At one point, after a few times to put the laptop to sleep and wake, the fingerprint reader does not.  No flashing.  I slide my finger and the player does not respond at all - is not yet tell me that there was a bad reading.
  • If I login and log back in again, no change. However, if I do a reboot, everything is fine - the fingerprint reader works again.

  I watched over and over again for new drivers and installed.  Nothing seems to affect this scenario.   Unfortunately, this has started to happen about 9 months ago () and because of the sporadic nature of it, I was not attentive enough to know the 'precise' point in time when it started happening.  My instincts tell me that there was some sort of update software/driver along the way which is originally the fingerprint reader not do not work right.  I hope HP continues a relationship with these companies to fingerprint reader and can transmit these questions so that we can do a software update.  But... I don't know if it has been abandoned.  My laptop is still under warranty, but it would be ridiculous to send in just this problem.

  I hope that someone has heard of this on the dv6 and may know a solution.  Thank you!

  My system is a HP dv6-6145dx.  I am running Windows 7, with the latest updates.  The integrated fingerprint reader works on HP Simple pass 2011 v5.1 and Validity Sensor driver 4.3.205.0 version.  When I try to launch the Simple passage interface, it loads the database, but then the application disappears.  I tried to uninstall and reinstall the software, but makes no difference with the issue, I noted.

  "If you keep an open mind, life will give you more opportunities."

  No problem, I am completely I shouldn't bother with Pass Simple version 8.  I advanced and installed version 6.  I did not yet get no joy, so I did a little more digging and found one more late Validity Sensor driver, version 4.3.304 (not noted in the list of update driver for my laptop model).  IT WORKED.  I can now go into hibernation and the fingerprint reader remains functional when the system is out of hibernation.  Previously, it was pretty much guaranteed became disabled.  So... it looks that my problem is now solved.

  

• How to control the speed of the pointer mouse on the login screen?

  How can I control the speed of the pointer mouse on the login screen?

  I put the speed of the pointer in a way at once two users accounts.

  I think that when I go to the login screen by using change user, the speed of the mouse pointer is the same as the user configured the pointer speed.  (I suspect it's the speed of the pointer to the user account that I'm spending.)  TO BE DETERMINED.  "But it doesn't matter, because they are the same).

  However, when I go to login screen using Log Off, the mouse whips autour at a very fast speed - much faster that the speed of the pointer set up users.

  [EDIT] It is also the speed of the mouse when you go to the login screen after you start the computer.

  It is disconcerting to the 87-year-old who uses the computer.  (Read: barely in computer science.)

  FYI, I don't have not noticed this until I went from a wired mouse to Dell for a Logitech wireless mouse.  (I have turned to bike computer.)

  Also, users configured users pointer speed is the 2nd from left to right, with improved set the pointer precision.

  I wrote:

• Why does take so long to load from the time wherever I power up until it takes to get to the login screen? help taking too long

  Why does take so long to load from the time wherever I power up until it takes to get to the login screen? help taking too long

  You should take a look at your startup programs and decide what is really necessary and what is nothing more than useless clutter. There is nothing wrong with the startup programs, some may be really useful or even necessary for your personal needs. But keep in mind that many programs build to start when you start the computer and that most of them must not start when the computer starts, all they do is slow down your boot time and clutter of things when you're trying to solve problems, and some are downright harmful!

  I mean, have you really need things like real Planner and Gadwin Print Screen running all the time? These programs will run very well, even if they are not started automatically every time that you start the computer. Go to these programs and change/disable their boot option. Some may be difficult to kill for public assistance services can be useful when you try to control startup programs. Try CodeStuff Starter, it's safe and easy to use, I think you'll like it, download it here:

  http://CodeStuff.tripod.com/products_starter.html>

  Use AutoRuns to check axis start, Richard:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx>

  Use Cclenar-> tools-> start

  http://www.CCleaner.com/download/builds.aspx>

  I can't tell you what to keep, startup items it is a personal preference, but pretty well all the startup items indicated by CodeStuff Starter are safe to disable, and changes are easy to reverse if you change your mind. Searches for items it shows you and decide whether or not these things are really useful or necessary. Some programs will be started at startup without your knowledge and over time, that list can expand to include useless parasites, part of good computer maintenance includes regular control of these startup items and the removal of the unnecessary.

  Suggest that you first spread malware as the cause of the problem by following these steps:

  I. - delete your temporary files

  Clean the system (compensation to all temp/tmp folders and included all the content offline, the tif browser, delete the cookies of compensation.)

  Do a disk cleanup. Click the Start button. in the search box, type disk cleanupand then in the list of results, click Disk Cleanup. Better and easier to use - ccleaner.

  Download the basic version (slim) via

  http://www.Piriform.com/CCleaner/builds>

  The basic version (slim) does not contain the toolbar disgusted

  DO NOT USE ANY cleaning of the advanced options. DO NOT TOUCH THE REGISTRY OR TOOLS. At least not for now.

  Reset

  II. - have your system scanned as a result of security/antivirus installed.

  III. - download, install, update and run both of these tools to a-squared free scans:

• Windows Vista goes to sleep and then wakes up immediately at the login screen

  Original title: sleep function appears just right back to the login screen

  When I use the sleep function on Windows Vista (the switch icon to the left of the lock in the start menu), the system go to the start screen, but a few seconds later, the computer comes back, says "Recovery Windows" and then displays the password login screen.

  I scanned the computer many times for viruses (using McAfee), but found nothing.  Is there a way to tell the computer to sleep and have it actually do?

  See if the following can help you...
  Start button > Panel > Classic view > Power Options > click on change power settings > click on advanced editing powersettings > scroll down until you see Miltimedia parameters, click the plus sign (+) sign in front of > again once, click the (+) sign sign in front when media sharing > on battery shoud read " allow the computer to sleep ".
                                                   Sector should read " allow the computer to sleep ".
  If they aren't, it must 'prevent the idling to sleep' or 'allow the computer switch to Away mode. Click on it, you should see a pointer on the far right, click on it and select allow the computer to sleep.
  Click OK when finished.

• Lost password: I recently had to do a restore to factory on my computer dell laptop. It went well until he took me to the login screen and I entered my password is not working

  I recently had to do a restore to factory on my computer dell laptop. It went well until he took me to the login screen and I entered my password is not working. I can't get past this login screen. I have seen a lot of messages that say to insert the disc of vista and re - install. I tried to do, and nothing happened when I put the disc.

  Dell recovery options:

  And that way if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive.
