T500 fingerprint reader does not load at startup (blue screen)

I have 2081CTO T500. Provided natively with Vista Home, but I reinstalled with XP Pro SP3. All the latest updates are installed both drivers and windows (as of March 12, 2010).

I've had this laptop for about a year and the fingerprint reader to work properly. A few months ago it stops working for some reason any and I stoppped using it. I finally had time to reinstall the whole windows and installed. It worked well for about a day, but today I was using my computer and it suddenly froze unanswered. I turned off and when I walk back, the fingerprint sensor would not load and a blue screen came up with an error that a failure to boot and windows kept just restart at this stage and display the same message. I password protected journal and had loaded all ten fingers to use during the connection (not the Welcome screen).

I tried power cycling, did not work. Subsequently had to connect via safe mode, disable the fingerprint sensor to connect and then reboot in normal mode to be able to connect without the Blue error screen. I tried updating the BIOS, did not work. Reinstalled the sensor of fingerprint, again the same problem. I also reset the fingerprint sensor in the BIOS and reinstalled the software, but still the same problem. Basically now I use the home screen and in this way, that I don't get the Blue error screen. It just continues to show as if the sensor is train load, never happens, so I just put a password and enter. I remember that some months ago, when I had a problem, it was similar. It worked fine, but when I turned off the Welcome screen, I suddenly had a problem with the sensor that was not resolved until I reinstalled windows. Now that I think of it, it could be the same disabling the Welcome screen things screwed up again.

Could someone please explain what is happening? Why are there so many problems without the windows welcome screen? I know that the sensor works very well because when I am trying to scan my fingers or even connect to Thinkpad security systems, it works fine. It's just windows connect you that is screwed. I can't go back again to work at least with the Welcome screen. I'd appreciate any help.

After a few bars, I isolated the problem to the personal firewall. I changed the settings and fingerprint reader worked very well. I hope this will help someone in the future.

  • A drive mapped on P to P does not load at startup upward.

    My question is similar, but may have a different answer.  I have a peer-to-peer network and my computer plays the main role.  In the morning he gets turned on first so that other computers can charge the player.  Some of my programs require that the mapped drive is the same on all computers like me.  The problem is that when I turn on my computer, it does not read the drive mapped on himself and he listed as disconnected.  I then manually go and plug.  Again, it is annoying more then anything.  Any suggestions?

  • Google Reader does not load

    Hello

    Since upgrading to Firefox 36.0.1 () and Google Reader does not load correctly. While I can access the page from disk, the color wheel that google appears as apps load just continues to run. I tried on Chrome and it loads fine. I also tried to open Firefox in Mode safe with extensions/add-ons disabled, as well as to empty cache memory. I have not yet tried the Firefox update, but I did not have any settings beyond the Add-ons that should interfere.

    Has anyone encountered this problem? Any suggestions would be very helpful.

    Thank you!

    Thank you! I just tried, and it did not help. However, I decided to do a "refresh" of firefox, and now it works. I'll follow careful of my modules and see if it happens again.

    Thank you!

  • Fingerprint reader does not react anymore while the software seems to work (Thinkpad E530 Windows 10)

    I used logg in via the reader of fingerprints (windows 10) with no problems, now the fingerprint reader does not react anymore when I pull the finger. I managed to remove all the passwords in the password manager (still not sure about it as I don't really understand how all the components work together) hoping that would solve the problem. Not the fingerprint reader software keeps asking me to register a new finger. Everything seems to work fine (I can pick a finger to be registered, type my password windowns) until I asked me to draw the finger on the fingerprint reader: nothing happens! The indicator that shows how the finger was scanned shows nothing at all. Looks like the software works, but the fingerprint reader itself is dead. However, looking into the information system the "TouchStrip Fingerprint Sensor' (WBF mode advanced) seems to work fine.

    Help, please. I don't have any idea how to find out what's not here.

    Thank you very much for the tip! He works in fact :-). Even if it does not seem logical to me, as I never put it in place a front pin - and fingerprint reader work very well even without PIN code. But who cares - the main thing is it works now! So thanks a lot again :-)!

  • HP Probook s 4540: fingerprint reader does not

    Hello

    Problem: fingerprint - Windows journal reader under does not have the ability to connect via the fingerprint reader.

    Overview: after installing the drivers of the fingerprint on the HP site and thanks to the HP protection tools to register successfully to fingerprints, I tried to log in via this method, but the Windows Connect screen does not display this option. Device Manager correctly identifies and shows the fingerprint sensor - however, the Control Panel does no detection of biometric devices.

    I really need help with this problem. Details of what steps I took trying to make the scanner work are given below.

    Specs:

    1) 4540 probook s

    (2) Windows 7 64 bit

    (3) i5 - 3210 m, 1 GB Hd 7650 m, 4 GB at 1333 Mhz, 750 GB 5400 RPM, VFS 491 fingerprint reader.

    Details of the problem and the steps of my work to install the drivers:

    After a new installation of Windows 7, I went on the site of HP driver to download the latest drivers for Probook s 4540:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=5229457&...

    I installed the drivers in roughly in this order:

    drivers ethernet controller 1) realtek.

    drivers audio 2),

    (3) the chipset and USB 3.0 drivers (but not the Intel MEI driver)

    (4) Intel video driver: a problem such that the pilots were not allowed to install. After you disable switchable graphics in the bios, I was able to get these drivers to install.

    (5) AMD video drivers: installed after graphic driver intel HD - installed but Catalyst Control Center was not displayed. Then I reactivated switchable graphics in the BIOS, re-installed these drivers and CCC was now available.

    (6) support for HP keyboard shortcut

    (7) HP Universal camera driver

    (8) fingerprint sensor fingerprint validity

    (9) Synaptics Touchpad driver

    (10) Atheros wifi & bluetooth

    (11) Jmicron card reader

    After driver installation, I installed the HP protection tools. According to request a reboot of the PC, which I did-, he asked for the setting up security etc... Part of this pocess was the registration of fingerprints - successful. However, log off / restart of windows, an option to connect with the fingerprint reader does not appear in the Windows login screen.

    I open the control panel and found there wasn't that no biometric device only tab, even if the Device Manager showed biometric sensor, device and validity (VFS 491). I then uninstall HP protect tools and driver validity sensor fingerprint, and made sure that these services are running:

    -Credential Manager

    -Remote Procedure Call (RPC)

    DCOM Server process Launcher-

    RPC end point mapper-

    -Windows Biometric Service

    Plug-and-Play

    Then as suggested in another post on the forum, I installed first of all this:http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55109.exe , then the drivers of the validity of 4540 s drivers page, then HP protection tools.

    After the reboot HP protect tools as before to register my fingerprints, but still no windows login prompt came to connect with fingerprints. However, a change after installtion of http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55109.exe that has been in Control Panel it is now a tab for biometric devices. However, it is said that windows did not find it all installed biometric devices. A picture is attached showing the Device Manager and Control Panel!

    Please HP offer a solution. Thank you!

    OK problem solved. I don't know if it is related to the HP windows 7 system essential updates driver installation and Intel MEI or not - but I install these.

    What has really worked probably was it - > install the drivers of fingerprint and then the HP protection tools. Once rebooted, open HP tools protect, then return to the administration in the lower right corner-> the administration Console-> increase of security system-> tick windows login security and your done. Now, you will be able to connect through fingerprints registered.

  • Fingerprint reader does not work after the laptop awakens from his sleep.

    Pavilion DV6-6c15nr

    Windows 7 Home Premium

    Fingerprint reader works fine when the computer starts. The drive works fine if I manually lock the system. When the computer enters mode "sleep" through inactivity, then wakes up from his sleep, the fingerprint reader does not work. The player power led does not illuminate, the player does nothing if I drag a registered fingerprint. I must select use authentication information and enter the Windows password. Device Manager says device working properly but it doesn't help. I checked for BIOS, Windows and driver updates but I run in all aspects.

  • DV7-4073nr - fingerprint reader does not work after the upgrade to HP Support Assistant

    Hello

    I have a problem right now. The HP support assistant suggested that I had to upgrade the software of fingerprints to be upgraded and I did it without delay. Restart, the drive does not work. Windows 7 says it's a bad data. no password HP does. What should I do?

    Turn the computer off, and then once you turn on, keep the F8 key several times to load the "Windows Advanced startup options" screen. In this screen either select mode safety/Safe mode with networking and log in to your user account by entering the password manually.

    Once that is done, do a restore of the system through the control panel and restore your computer to an earlier date, whenever it was working fine. Once the restore process is done, change the settings for HP Support Assistant auto do not install updates

    Hello

    It seems that you have a missing driver, the former driver who worked with her has been installed on the old hard drive, so now you must install the same driver or a newer version if available.

    You can get it from the hp support & drivers.

    The good news: there are 10 HP Windows drivers for your system.  (It is not the case for everyone.)

    If the system has been migrated to Windows 10 (as opposed to the installed computer with W10), while you have installed HP 10 Windows drivers, including the Chipset driver.

    There is an update to the BIOS of your system - which do not install unless you have your computer completely saved, particularly files all critical.  Do not update the BIOS unless / until it's absolutely necessary.  Why hesitate?  BIOS updates may be very beneficial--or they can turn fatal and turn your computer into a large, flat paper weight.
