Persona fingerprint reader digital software of Vostro 3550 incompatible with Windows 8

I just downloaded the newly released Windows 8 iso and run the compatibility test. All material is supported in some way, even if there is mention to get the new drivers from Dell. However, the fingerprint reader is listed as being incompatible with Windows 8. I went to the homepage of the Digital Persona and they no longer support consumer products. Result is, I fight a machine from Dell which is less than 2 years old and is loaded with a piece of software is no longer supported by the vendor. Anyone have any suggestions on alternative software that will allow the fingerprint reader to work with Windows 8?

Thank you

Jon

Have you tried the driver Validity Sensor (VFS5011)?

  • Digital Persona fingerprint reader

    I have a HDX 18 t. It came with windows vista x 64 and I have upgraded to windows 7 x 64. After the upgrade the integrated digital persona fingerprint reader is no longer in effect. The fingerprint reader is not detected. I tried to uninstall, reinstall and update the drivers. Currently, I have the latest version of the software for the installed fingerprint (4.11.3826) reader. The icon for the fingerprint reader has 'x' on it which indicates that the drive is not detected.

    I've already sent to the post:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/operating-systems-and-software/DigitalPersona-validity-fingerprint-and-...

    I followed the instructions for part A on install fingerprint driver digital validity and the DigitalPersona Personal software. However, after my computer restarted, a message appeared and said: "the fingerprint reader could not be detected. Reinstall it using the recovery of applications and drivers disk provided with your system. »

    Previously, I tried unistalling digital persona completely and reinstall it from the driver and application recovery disk. However, this does not work any more.

    I think the recovery disk does not work because it was made for windows vista. The only way (at least AFAIK), I was able to successfully use this disc would be to reinstall vista and then reinstall the driver and application recovery disk. However I would no longer have windows 7 which I've already paid for.

    I also tried to contact Digital Persona about the issue online, I had no great success however.

    If someone can tell me at least who can help me, I would be very happy. I tried several different solutions many times, and it becomes frustrating. I just want to use the fingerprint reader that's installed in my computer. I want to keep windows 7, so I won't downgrade for the fingerprint reader. This problem persisted for several months now and I want to be treated.

    I have enough confidence in my computer skills to be able to follow the instructions given for me online, but I am not above having a technician help me. So if it's necessary I would force quickly. The only thing I want to avoid shipping my computer anywhere since I use everyday to school.

    I apologize for the length of the post. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    After many days a lot of work, I finally found the solution for VFS301 of a validity sensor works with Digital Persona on Win 7 64 bit because it is supposed to.

    Open "fingerprint reader drivers.prq" in notepad.exe

    Delete all lines of text in the file 'fingerprint reader drivers.prq' and save the empty file.

    (9) back to the Digital Persona installation dialog box referred to in point 6

    Now, click on INSTALL and let it install the software

    He will open the same file again and continue with the installation...

  • Said Microsoft digital image suite is not compatible with Windows 7, but...

    So say microsoft digital image suite is not compatible with Windows 7, but I just read this on a forum and other people were in agreement:

    "I have Microsoft Digital Image Suite 2006 and installed on Windows 7 64bt without any problem at all. I didn't do anything special, just installed. I don't understand why other people had problems. "

    me the trying to instal it or it will cause problems to other programs? I can't find anything as versatile as Microsoft Photo Suite Edition and would be very happy if it would work on windows 7.

    Nope. Not bad at all. At most, it will not work or some features work exactly as they should. But, most of the people that I have seen and read about had no problems at all. You really don't lose anything else than it is time to give it a try. Chances are, though, that it will work without any problem.

    I'm considering buying a computer with Windows 7.  Is there a driver for my Canon Multipass F50 printer?  I have Office Professional for XP - can I load office software on the new computer with Windows 7?

  • Reading of .bkf files on xp pro with windows vista or windows 7.

    It comes to clarify my previous post. How can I open the files in .bkf created with xp pro backup tool with my windows vista machine? I have similar problems with windows 7 to use these saved files with my new computer?

    Here is a free software that opens and retrieves the BKF files (and repairs corrupt files): .  Once loaded, you'll be able to read BKF files using the program (and repair those that are corrupt).  This program is compatible with Vista (according to information posted on the site).  If it installs like normal programs, it creates an association between itself and the BKF files so you won't have to go through the process every time that you want to open/recover a BKF file (if it doesn't, go to Start/Default / programs / associate a file or Protocol with a program / and find the BKF files and changing the association to the program (if it isn't already there).)  You may need to search for the executable file of the program manually make the association (but I doubt it).

    Here is another option that may better suit your needs (I'm not sure what you have in mind): .  The same notes on file associations apply to this program (although I would not install both of them at the same time to avoid a situation of conflict of associations - although the more likely scenario is that the last installed program will be the one with the association).

    I don't know how these files (or others) will work with Windows7 - please post this question in the Forums Windows7: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windows7 where people who specialize in issues of Windows7 will be more than happy to help you with your question.

    I hope this helps.

  • Canon Digital Photo Professional is not compatible with Windows 8?

    I'd appreciate any help available.  I just bought an HP computer with windows 8.  I got a Canon Rebel t3i for Christmas and you may not use the software that came with it for editing.  It's Digital photo professional.   My computer tells me it's not compatible, but I went to Canon and downloaded the updated version and it still does not work.   The error message comes when I click on to say the Office X program requires a display capable of resolution 1024 x 768 or more (screen area) and colourful or higher settings.   The resolution is defined as recommended in 1920 x 1080 and color seems high.    Very frustrated because my sister says that it is a great program for my camera.   Please respond to all suggestions.   Thanks in advance.

  • Microsoft Plus! Digital Media Edition is not compatible with Windows 7

    I have Microsoft! Digital Media Edition, I bought March 22, 2004. I changed my computer, now I have Window 7 operating system, I just realized that I can't install the CD on this laptop. You kindly advise, thanks.

    There is no option here because more EMR is not compatible with Windows 7, you need to try to find alternative solutions that correspond closely to all of the features of it. Windows Live Essentials includes features such as the new Windows Live Movie Maker that includes features similar to photo story. Features like features MP3 encoder and clock radio, for that you will need to find third-party alternatives. Programs such as RealPlayer and WinAmp work encoding of audio files in different formats, so these are two you can watch.

    The default resolution and "recommended" for my two monitors lenovo is 1920 x 1080. I have a new system and I tried for a few weeks now to something to work with screen resolution and third-party apps. I am under W7 Pro right now, but will soon be getting to 10.

    The high resolution is not a problem in 7 with any Microsoft stuff. With the help of a custom of the DPI setting takes care of all the native stuff. Some third-party applications can be set as well. For example, Corel Photo Paint X 7 has bars of detachable command with command icons that can be set to small, medium or large. When the size of the icon is changed, the size of the font adjusts accordingly and it is perfectly feasible, acknowledging the icons or by reading the text. It is perfect for this dual screen system and works like a charm.

    However, most of other software companies are not quite as respectful of their clients. Bryce, formerly owned by Corel, but now DAZ despicable, is not removable toolbars and there is no options available to adjust the sizes of icons in order. Even if preferences to provide an engaging, multiple monitor option not to release the toolbars or increase the font size. It only opens the Bryce "Labs" in the second monitor in a position at the end of the dialog box, half of the Cup.

    It also applies even in a top of the range of applications such as VIEW and Smith Micro, Poser Pro. They present menus and toolbar icons that are so tiny, it is necessary to use the Magnifier Microsoft to make and which isn't real solution when your work with graphics programs. It's incredibly awkward.

    My old system, running XP Pro, SP3, which I always put in place and operational, has a screen resolution of 1280 X 768, and it displays all the software of third party very well. If I try to use this resolution with W7 and these monitors high resolution, I get a crushed image down and half on the screen which is useless. I can read everything very well, but all images are short and fat! If it was possible to type values for the height and width, using an infinite scale rather than the fixed scale that is provided by the slider over, nicked in W7, it would be possible to find a combination that worked. Then, once the wreck was set for third party stuff, the custom DPI settings Windows could take care of the native stuff.

    I had an Oracle VirtualBox running for awhile and loaded the third of things out there and it worked for awhile but it did not offer the ability double screen and, in any case, after awhile it started to get really uptight and I finally just had to get rid of.

    Really, I would be much happier if I could just load XP Pro on this machine and do run as quickly as things that made to run on it. The only reason why I got a new system was the need for more speed and muscle. But if I can't use my favorite, applications worth it?

    Is there no workaround solution that will make it possible to adjust the resolution so that the third-party applications are fully functional using all the space on the screen?

    Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read and respond.

    Since no one answered I'll provide the solution myself. Doing right thing 'upgrade' to Windows 10 has this problem of resolution.

    Other than that, getting W10 to work even at halfway was a nightmare.

  • Satellite Pro A100-622 can not read the card SD and Memory Stick with Windows Explorer

    I have a Satellite Pro A100-622 running MS Vista Home Basic Edition. I tried to use the card reader integrated with SD and Memory Stick card but cannot view the contents using Windows Explorer.

    In both cases, the laptop recognizes the card and try to install new hardware. Unable to do so, he asks the drive of the software provided with the cards. Any software not provided with a card and I cannot find drivers to make the drive work.

    The only application that I can find on the laptop that is associated with the player is a module of SD formatting, but I don't want to format the card (s) I want to just read the current content of them and add files.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    You can download the drivers (and especially in your case for the sd-card-reader) here:

    http://PC-support.Toshiba-Europe.com/Vista/

    and here

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    So the other point is the service of the SD card must be enabled in the start menu-> Control Panel (change to Classic view)-> Administration-> Services-> Chip card (at this point, you must activate the service and configure it to start at windows startup).

    If you have any other questions, just ask. ;)

    Hi areksuroboyo,

    Is what program this? If it is not compatible with Vista, but worked on XP or lower then you tried "compatibility mode"? Try right clickinging on the setup.exe file in the program you want to install. In the drop-down menu, select properties and then click on the tab "Compatibility" set the compatibility to Windows XP and see if it will install then.
