SimplePass V5.1 doesn't work! True Suite engine fails to initialize properly

Question

I can no longer get  SimplePass V5.1 to load. I get an error message that the "TrueSuite engine failed to initialize properly."
I have already renamed IEBHO.DLL so that it no longer loads if it ever did but that hasn't helped.  Why isn't TrueSuite engine initializing?
HPdv6-6150 laptop running Windows 7 sp1 Home Premium. Simple Pass used to work properly and I want to use it again.

Hi Jupiter,
Not sure why you are using TrueSuite or SimplePass 5.1
Can you clarify your exact / full SimplePass version?
According to your HP Website
Software & Driver Downloads - HP Pavilion dv6-6150us Entertainment Notebook PC
You have the option of running:
Driver: Validity Sensor V4.3.205.0
Software: HP SimplePass 5.3.1.7
NOTE:  There is a newer AuthenTec version (5.4.0.620 at writing) at the AuthenTec website, too, that will run with the Validity V4.3.205.0 Driver.  I can send details if you get to that point.
Just so you know:
Renaming .dll files rarely helps...
Are you trying running an old version of the HP version of SimplePass from HP?
Say... 5.1.0.495 ??
That old version won't run with anything except and old Validity Driver - and the 5.1.x software is badly out of date, too.
If you can explain a bit, it would help,
OR
it may be easy enough to fix just by updating what you have to what is on your HP website:
Driver FIRST
Software Second
I hope this helps!
Good Luck!
