Fingerprint Scanner/Support Chat

BTW: Second Hand computer, been wiped and OS and basic drivers installed So, at first I was looking into the touch buttons at the top of the keyboard, then I found out that this laptop had a fingerprint scanner. So, I looked into it, and couldn't find anything really on how to activate it. I decided to talk to an HP support rep, and found out the computer warranty expired April of 2014, and somehow, I got into a chat and the rep told me to boot the computer into BIOS. I looked up how to, and did it, but was faced with a password. I asked my uncle, who gave me the laptop and works on computer as his job, and he said to talk to a rep again and say that I don't know the BIOS password or how to reset it. But now, since I don't have a warranty, I can't remember how I got into a chat and can't figure out how. Tl;dr: Basic Questions: How to reset BIOS password and I guess how (If I can) to get back into a rep chat.

Hi
Hard Reset:
Sometimes all you need to do is kick the computer. This method works for a variety of connection and ‘stuck’ program issues.
Disconnect all external devices first.
Remove AC power and the battery
Press and hold power button for at least 30 seconds
Reinstall only AC power for first startup See Note
Power on - Log in
Next time you shut down the system, reinstall battery.
Note: You can ignore the bit about leaving the battery out. If you like, reinstall battery the first time and be done with it.
Open a web browser and go to hp.com , select SUPPORT & DRIVERS . When prompted, enter your product number , select the current Operating System and then expand the Software - Security listing. The access manager software is listed update the drivers
Let us know how it goes!

  • Fingerprint Scanner no longer working in Windows 10

    Hi, I just updated from Windows 7 to the Windows 10 technical preview (10130).  The fingerprint scanner on my laptop no longer works. In Windows 7 when I used it with LastPass, it worked well. Now, it does not seem to register a swipe. I tried to grab the latest drivers from the HP support site, but that did not seem to solve the issue.  Product number: A3E82AV Thanks. 

    Hi , I understand that you are having some troubles with the fingerprint reader on your system, after installing the Windows 10 tech preview. You may want to try updating to the current build which is 10162. Each update tends to have a series of fixes and new features, ( and sometimes a few more issues). Currently the only drivers for Windows 10 tech preview, are a part of the operating system. Also please read the following post Welcome to the HP Windows® 10 Technical Preview discussion board. by . It includes general information about the Tech Preview as well as links to the various Microsoft pages for preview. Also if you wish to get the free upgrade to the release version of Windows 10, when it comes out, you will probably want to go back to your original factory operating system, to qualify for it. I hope this helps.

  • Lenovo B570 Fingerprint scanner not responding/is gone and other issues

    Hi,
    I've been having some issues lately with my laptop. It comes with a fingerprint scanner, but as of yesterday is stopped working. Normally I can login by swiping my finger, but now it doesn't even show up. It usually has 3 users slots on the login screen. Mine, my sisters, and another slot for the fingerprint scanner. Now that third one doesn't even show up. My fingerprint scanner isn't reading anything at all, nor is it even showing up in many places. I have no idea what could have caused this. Any help?
    I'm running Windows 7 64bit on my Lenovo B570. 
    I'm not sure if it's related, but when I went to check my drivers to see if it was a driver issue, I found that a bunch of hardware was not working due to driver issues. They wouldn't let me update, giving me a Code 31 error, saying that the file could not be found. The ones that aren't working are listed below.
    Microsoft 6to4 Adapter
    Microsoft ISATAP Adapter
    Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface
    WAN Miniport (IKEv2)
    WAN Miniport (IP)
    WAN Miniport (IPv6)
    WAN Miniport (L2TP)
    WAN Miniport (Network Monitor)
    WAN Miniport (PPPOE)
    WAN Miniport (PPTP)

    If anyone could help me fix this, I would be eternally grateful.

  • T430 doesn't resume correctly via fingerprint scanner

    Hello, I have a pretty new T430 and occasionally (about 30% of time time) when I try to resume from hiberation or sleep via the fingerprint scanner, it will start to boot, maybe even show the desktop for a brief second, but then stop on a black screen. The cursor is visible and active, the fan and drive are running, but that's it. The only thing I can do is hold down the power button to force a shut down and boot again.
    I'm running Windows 8, and I hoped that downloading the new driver from http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS029769 would fix this, but it hasn't. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I posted the same exact issue yesterday, but somehow my post is gone.
    I have a T510 and mine constantly does this (every time, never fails). I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers multiple times with no resolution. When I do a fingerprint login, it logs me in, shows the desktop and all active content/windows, and then goes right back to the fingerprint screen.
    The only way to get it to "stick" (not go right back to the lock screen) is to quickly click and focus the mouse on some application/area within the desktop, as soon as it's visible for the split second that it's shown.
    *NOTE*: Mine happens on login, not just resume. If my screen is locked because of idle and I try to log back in using the fingerprint reader this happens every time.

  • Solution for fingerprint scanner failure after ThinkVantage upgrade!

    Hi Everyone,
    I keep seeing a number of posts about problems with the fingerprint scanner after you let the ThinkVantage updater run and update the fingerprint software.  I found a solution last week and it has been working flawlessly since then.  I posted it here:
    http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=T_Series_Thinkpads&thread.id=19388
    However here is are the details:
     I ran into the same problem, however I found a solution that has worked for me. I went into the control panel and open programs and features. What I noticed was that there were two different versions of the fingerprint software installed. I uninstalled both of them, rebooting when required until they were gone. I then downloaded the latest version of the fingerprint software from here: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-70598
    After installing it, my scanner is working like a charm! Hopefully this helps you out as well!
    Cheers!

    Looks like some magic (i.e., simple full system restart) helped. After that ACPI looks normal. Some errors still are in dmesg, but seemingly not critical.

  • Fingerprint scanner not working_Can't re-install fingerprint scanner driver on my dv6-1080el

    Hi all!
    I'm facing a really annoying issue with the fingerprint scanner on my hp dv6-1080el.
    I recently switched to Windows 7 professional 64 bit (3 weeks ago) and installed all the drivers needed (fingerprint scanner included).
    After few days in which the systems was perfectly working, following a windows automatic update -I guess- the fingerprint scanner stop working. Then, I tried to re-install the driver (original one downloaded from hp site: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-75502-3&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&... but every time I do that, I got this error message:
    An error occurred during the installation of assembly
    'policy.8.0.Microsoft.VC80.CRT.type="win32policy",version="8.0.50727.762"publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchiteture="amd64"'.
    Please refer to Help and Support for more information.
    Obviously, before doing that, I uninstalled the device in the "device manager" and then, once the system is rebooted, windows automatically install (successfully) the driver for the biometric device and according to what written in the device status the device is "working properly".
    Actually I cannot even see the fingerprint scanner icon when I log on to the system, so the device is clearly not working.
    Can someone tell me how to solve this issue?
    Thanks in advance to everybody can help me on this!

    Hi @Anni_V 
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    It is a terrific place to find answers.
    For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
    I grasp that you updated your system to Windows 7 professional. All was working well until an automated Windows update was installed and now the fingerprint reader is not working.
    You have tried to reinstalling the original driver but receive an error when trying to uninstall it.
    Would you try deleting the driver and not uninstalling it. 
    There is also a Digital Persona Fingerprint Reader Software(null) ,have you tried deleting/uninstalling and reinstalling it?
    If the issue remains, as it was working until the update was installed you can try a restore or removing that particular update.
    Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
    To view the installed updates go to the control panel/programs and features/view installed updates.
    If you believe the updates caused the issue you can
    If the recovery partition is still intact you could try reinstalling the driver from it.  Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7)

  • HP ENVY 17 G0U21AV - Is there a way to disable the Fingerprint Scanner?

    I am using an HP ENVY 17 G0U21AV Windows 8.1.
    This model came with a fingerprint scanner in the lower left of the computer. While this seems like a nice feature, it's not one that I am planning on using (I use LastPass for my passwords). I keep accidentally running part of my palm over the scanner which will bring up the screen for HP SimplePass. This can come up at the most inopportune moments, and it can get quite annoying trying to always conciously avoid the fingerprint scanner.
    Is there any way to disable the fingerprint scanner?
    Thanks.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    @DSWJoshua,
    Thanks for posting. You can disable the fingerprint reader. To be thorough, I will provide steps to disable the driver itself, and Biometric support, so you don't have to worry about it later.
    To disable the Driver, go to Control Panel, then Device Manager. Expand Biometric devices. Right-click on the Validity sensor and Uninstall.
    To turn off biometric support, go to Control Panel, then Biometric devices. Uncheck Allow users to log on to Windows using their fingerprints and then save it.

    Hello Tdp86,
    It sounds like you are having an intermittent issue where you are unable to access your movies, and you cannot play them at all. I want to recommend starting by signing out of the iTunes store in settings:
    From the main Apple TV menu, choose Settings > iTunes Store.
    From: How to rent a movie from the iTunes Store on Apple TV
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1498
    Then restart the Apple TV:
    Restart your Apple TV by selecting Settings > General > Restart.
    From: Apple TV: How to restart your Apple TV 
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3180
    Then test the issue again and see if it works correctly, and consistently.

  • HP Probook 4540s: Fingerprint Scanner Not Working

    Hi,
    Problem: Fingerprint Scanner - Windows log in does not give option to log in via fingerprint scanner. 
    Overview: After installing fingerprint drivers from the HP site and using the HP Protect Tools to successfully enroll fingerprint, I tried logging in via this method but the windows log in screen does not display this option. Device manager correctly identifies and shows the fingerprint sensor - however, the control panel says no biometric devices detected.
    I really need help in sorting out this issue. Details of what steps I took trying to make the scanner work are given below. 
    Specs: 
    1) Probook 4540s
    2) Windows 7 64-bit
    3) i5-3210m, 1Gb Hd 7650m, 4 Gb 1333Mhz, 750Gb 5400rpm, VFS 491 Fingerprint scanner.
    Details of the problem and steps I took to install drivers:
    After a fresh installation of Windows 7, I went to the HP driver site to download the latest drivers for Probook 4540s:
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=5229457&...
    I installed the drivers in roughly this order:
    1)realtek ethernet controller drivers,
    2)audio drivers,
    3) the chipset and USB 3.0 drivers (but not the Intel MEI driver)
    4) Intel video driver: faced an issue such that drivers were not being allowed to install. After disabling switchable graphics in the bios, I was able to get these drivers to install.
    5) AMD video drivers: installed after the intel HD graphics driver - installed but Catalyst Control Center was not being displayed. So I re-enabled switchable graphics in BIOS, re-installed these drivers and CCC was now available.
    6) HP hotkey support
    7) HP universal camera driver
    8) Validity Fingerprint sensor
    9) Synaptics Touchpad driver
    10) Atheros wifi & bluetooth
    11) Jmicron card reader
    After driver installation, I installed the HP Protect Tools. After prompting for a PC reboot - which I did - it asked for setup of security etc.. Part of this pocess was the enrolling of my fingerprints - successful. However, upon log off/ restart of windows, an option to log in with the fingerprint scanner did not appear in the Windows log in screen.
    I opened the Control Panel, and found there was no biometric devices tab, even though device manager showed biometric device and validity sensor (VFS 491). I then proceeded to uninstall HP protect tools and the validity driver for the fingerprint sensor, then made sure these services were running:
    -Credential Manager
    -Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
    -DCOM Server Process Launcher
    -RPC Endpoint Mapper
    -Windows Biometric Service
    -Plug and Play
    Then as suggested in another forum post, I first installed this :http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55109.exe and then the validity drivers from 4540s drivers page, and then HP Protect Tools.
    After reboot HP Protect Tools as before would enroll my fingerprints, but again no prompt at windows login came to log in with fingerprint. However, one change after the installtion of http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55109.exe was that in control panel there is now a tab for biometric devices; however, it says that windows did not find any biometric devices installed. An image is attached showing both the device manager and the control panel!
    Please HP provide a solution. Thanks!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Ok problem solved. I dont know whether it is related to the installation of HP windows 7 Essential System Updates and Intel MEI driver or not - but I did install these.
    What really worked without doubt was this - > install both the fingerprint drivers and then the HP Protect Tools. Once rebooted, open HP Protect tools, then go to administration in the bottom right corner -> Administrative Console ->Increase System security -> tick windows login security and your done. Now you will be able to log in via enrolled fingerprints.

    If any body knows anything about this please mail me its very urgent for me
    hope u will be able to tell me something about this .

    Hi,
    Fingerprint scanners are not popular enough devices to be supported by Java yet. There's no general API or Java interface for it.
    Each manufacturer of a fingerprint device will probably just ship their own drivers or SDKs. More than likely DLL's, so you'd need to write some JNI to call them.
    If you want to allow your application to work with multiple devices, you will have to design it to do that. Ie. write a general "Fingerprint" interface, and write a class which implements that interface for each device you want to support.
    Eg.
    public interface FingerPrintAPI
         public void initialiseScanner ( )
                throws MyScannerException;
         public byte[] getFingerPrint ( )
                throws MyScannerException;
         public double getMatchProbability ( byte[] fingerprint1, byte[] fingerprint2 )
                throws MyScannerException;
         public void closeScanner ( )
                throws MyScannerException;
    }I haven't used a fingerprint device at all, but that's how I would approach it.
    regards,
    Owen

    Anyone have any idea what to do?

    Hi @Anni_V 
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    It is a terrific place to find answers.
    For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
    I grasp that you updated your system to Windows 7 professional. All was working well until an automated Windows update was installed and now the fingerprint reader is not working.
    You have tried to reinstalling the original driver but receive an error when trying to uninstall it.
    Would you try deleting the driver and not uninstalling it. 
    There is also a Digital Persona Fingerprint Reader Software(null) ,have you tried deleting/uninstalling and reinstalling it?
    If the issue remains, as it was working until the update was installed you can try a restore or removing that particular update.
    Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
    To view the installed updates go to the control panel/programs and features/view installed updates.
    If you believe the updates caused the issue you can
    If the recovery partition is still intact you could try reinstalling the driver from it.  Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7)
    I hope this helps!
