Need to Reinstall Biometric Device

All of a sudden, the system could not find the T510's fingerprint reader. It was working perfectly, but on a reboot, it said "Co;uldn't Find Fingerprint Reader."
I have looked all over and find nothing about how to reinstall that device. In device manager, I uninstalled it and removed the drivers (figured they were corrupted.)
So, where does one get the Lenovo drivers for that device without having to toally reinstall the basic system?

Just a follow up. Fortunately, I had cloned a duplicate drive before uninstalling the device in Device Manager. I re-cloned back from that to the onboard drive and the Biometric Device was back in Device Manager.
D/M reports that it is working properly.
From a cold boot, it works to turn on the system. But, as soon as Windows loads - it goes away and Windows login cannot find it. Nor can the fingerprint utility once Windows is loaded.
I have tried every combination of Power Management to no avail. I conclude that it must be a line in the Registry. If anyone knows where that is, I can probably hack it.
Everything else is working nicely.

ingorlando1,
First, try this Easy Fix that may actually work:
Notebooks- Forced Reset to Resolve Hardware and Software Issues- Sealed Non-Removable Battery
Notebooks - Use Hard Reset to Resolve Hardware and Software Issues - Removable Battery
=====================================================================================
After the Reset, if that does not work by itself, do try and uninstall the Driver again so it can reinstall at boot:
Reinstall the current Validity Sensor Driver:
Control Panel > icon view > Device Manager > Biometric Devices > Validity Sensor >>
Right-Click on the Validity Sensor driver and "Uninstall" (do NOT delete it)
Restart / Reboot the computer and log in
The driver will reinstall itself as you log in
If still no joy:
What is your product number and your exact Operating System, please?
Locate the Notebook Product Number
=========== OR ================
On your keyboard (Use the built-in keyboard, and not an external / USB controlled device):
Press the FN and ESC keys at the same time

Do I need to reinstall Lion because my iPhone stopped being recognized by...

Do I REALLY need to reinstall Lion because my iPhone stopped being recognized by Image Capture, Aperture and iPhoto but still shows up in iTunes?
I was on the phone with Apple Support with 5 different Advisors for more than 3 hrs today and we were not able to resolve the problem (yet). Although the problem is frustrating, it's always kind of a pleasure chatting with the Advisors. (I said kinda)
Approx 2 weeks ago, iPhoto, Aperture and Image Capture all stopped recognizing my iPhone. Oddly, iTunes has no problem recognizing the iPhone. Here are just a few of the things we tried but didn't get the apps to see the iPhone again:
- Removed and deleted all photos on camera roll using a windows machine
- Removed all other photos synced between my iMac and iPhone
- Made sure an image existed on the camera roll
- Recorded some video on iPhone and then tried to get iMovie to recognize device
- Restored (gulp) the device followed by a restore from back-up
- Restored again (double gulp) but this time to factory settings and kept the device as a "new iPhone"
- Logged on as different users
and on and on.
Also, after noting that my machine refused to send a systems report to my Sr Advisor (Jimmy) at Apple, he suggests we re-install Lion (ack). But when we went to access the Recovery Partition we realized it wasn't there.
No recovery partition?
Not sending system reports to Apple?
Several Apps not seeing iPhone while others are recognizing the device?
So now I wait for Lion to arrive on one of those nifty Apple thumb drives for me to try re-installing ;-(
The following screen grab shows my iPhone in iTunes but not recognized by Image Capture. URGH!

Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider. You may have to leave the machine there for several days.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

ITunes was not installed properly. If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes

With Windows 7 I have completely deleted anything that was associated with Apple, Help, Support, you name it. It was verified nothing Apple. Reboot took place. I reinstalled iTunes per instructions and once again I got the following:
iTunes was not properlyinstalled. If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes.
Oviously something is amiss.

Having finally found a post to the same situation, I ran diagnostics and believe I have the same problem as this post. Here is the diagnostic report:

and so on...

ITunes is not installed properly. If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes .

I have installed iTunes on my new Windows 8 laptop and I get the "iTunes is not installed properly. If you wish to Import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes."
I have worked with Dell technicians and we have re-installed iTunes numerous times. We modified the Registry by adding the Upper Filters key and we removed the CD player in Device Manager and allowed it to be automatically reinstalled by the computer. All of this failed.
Please help!

Hello ,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand you've already uninstalled iTunes previously to troubleshoot this issue but make sure to follow the steps in the following article to remove iTunes and all of its components in the specific order listed.

You need to get rid of MacKeeper (Zeobit). Do not use their uninstaller, follow the instructions here ...

When that is done there does not appear to be a lot wrong if you correct the red ink entries.
The 4Gb is sufficient for Yosemite though 6 or 8 Gb would be better. You may find the download slow so be prepared.

TS3299 iTunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes

I've installed iTunes 10.6 on my Windows 7 machine. Everytime I start it I get this message: iTunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CDs you need to reinstall iTunes.
Reinstalling iTunes made no difference.
So I found this article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3299 and updated the registry like it said and it still didn't work but it also had the effect of making my CD drive no longer work for anything, including playing movies. Before following those instructions I could read and write cds using Windows Media player. Fortunately, I had backed up my registry leaf and restored it.
So I've been trying to figure out how to burn a cd from iTunes for close to two months now with no luck. Does anybody know how to get rid of the above error message?
Thank you!
David

Biometric devices=Problem

HI, Last year in October I purchased an Pavilion dv6-6167cl, everything was just fine up until the last bios update, after that the integrated biometric device stopped working. When i go to device manager the device shows up and says it's working properly, however the light is not on, on the device. Also when i use HP Simple Pass (Version 5.3.7) it will only allow me to use my master password to login. I've tried all sorts of trouble shooting. but none have prevailed (which makes me sad because, I loved my fingerprint reader...)
Also when i go to control panel and look under biometric devices it says "Windows did not find any biometric devices on this computer. You might need to attach your device or install device drivers." and when i look in bios during the start-up, under "System Configuration" biometric devices is not listed.
i could really use some help here it would be greatly appreciated.

So...I went back and looked at my post...and thee were 31 people who looked at it...however...there were no ideas at least on how to fix it...I though that at least one person would at least have an idea about how to fix it... but it appeas that hp doesn't know what they're doing anymore.

Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash.

...This is really annoying.
I work with adobe cs5. Recently, it started to not work. I would have to restart it over and over to get it to compile an swf properly. So I am trying cs5.5. I get this error "Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash."
So im like OK....Thats helpful....
-reinstalls flash-
"Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash."
-reinstalls java-
-reinstalls flash-
-reinstalls adobe flash cs5.5-
"Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash."
-google-
So I come across this post. Follow it exactly.
"Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash."
I change the thingy in the file to Xmx1024M
"Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash."
I come to the forums.
What do I do now?

Intro:
Finally I got near to roots of that mysterious Error
"Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash."
So here is what I'm found out + Bugfix
JavaPatch for Adobe Flash CS5 / CS6...     Ver #1 [ 21.01.2014 ]
======================================
This is the fix the bug in Flash tell you all the time that
Java could not be loaded. The effect of this error is that
Actionscript will not work.
Flash gives a little misleading error messages that tells you that
"There is no Actionscript in the current Project"
background information:
The problem is that the Java Virtual Machine.dll demands on startup
250MB huge contiguous memory blocks, but the 2GB-Virtual address
space of the Flash.exe process is already filled with various loaded dll's
BEFORE you continue ensure that you install/copied JRE 1.8.0 update 31 to
%ProgramData%\Adobe\CS5\jre\
For testing check if ...Adobe\CS5\jre\bin\java.exe starts
(and shows a help about available commands)
The Patch is for 32-bit version only!
(however the problem is probably not in the 64-Bit Version - since there a process has a much large more 'space')
Well SIMPLE FIX / Workaround:
Use 64-Bit version of Adobe Flash !
TechDetails:
Java's JVM.dll loaded in Ollydebug - The patched / change bytes are red.
^-Note that String ASCII "NUMA page alloc..." - will be a great 'link' to easily find that location in other JVM-versions to applied the patch there. Open jvm.dll in Ollydebug open String Ref. Windows and search for the string...
Download instructions:
Right click on picture above and download it.
Drag/open the *.jpg in / into Winrar / 7-Zip
OR
Rename 'Flash-CSX-jvm-JavaPatch #1.7z.jpg' -> 'Flash-CSX-jvm-JavaPatch #1.7z' so you open it by doubleclick
-> My creative solution for that A-Dope-board missing 'Attach file feature'
Tested:
with Adobe Flash CS5 + JRE 1.8.0 update 31
More Techstuff:
Some of my notes that might be useful:
Note the memory is not real allocated in the way it can be use since to write or read from it is just allocated as
MEM_RESERVE like you see in the screenshot above. And freed just a little alter.
It seems that java just checks if it could possible the maximal the JVM is made for.
Note the problem is not that you have to less physical RAM installed.
It's more related how memory is organise.
Well in 32 Bit each process has 4GB (or well practically Windows limits this to 2GB).
0x00000000 to 0x7FFF0000
This space is virtual and not actually claimed (else you would very quickly run out of RAM) but it a kind of potential or Adress system. Na sorry that'll be to offtopic to explain all the basic's about memory.
Adobe Flash CS5 calls
jvm.dll!JNI_CreateJavaVM( OUT **p_vm, OUT **p_env, IN *vm_args);
The 'vm_args'
typedef struct JavaVMInitArgs {
    jint version; 00010004
1. /* user classes */
-D java.class.path=
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5\Common\Configuration\ActionScript 3.0\;
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5\Common\Configuration\ActionScript 3.0\asc_authoring.jar;
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5\Common\"...
2. /* set native library path */
-D java.library.path=
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CS5\jre\bin
3.
-D java.Home=C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CS5\jre
4. classpath append
-X bootclasspath/a:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7\jre\lib\ext\QTJava.zip
5. Headless mode is a system configuration in which the display device, keyboard, or mouse is lacking. Headless mode support has been available since the J2SE 1.4 platform.
-D java.awt.headless=true
    jboolean ignoreUnrecognized; 1
} JavaVMInitArgs;
So for any further exploration about this Java problem setting a breakpoint to 'JVM.dll!JNI_CreateJavaVM' will be a great startpoint
