Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Change Fingerprint Login Icon / Picture - Windows 7

May 27, 2014

I've got a fairly new T440s for which I've set up fingerpringt reading. I was wondering if there'd be an (easy) way to change the picture displayed on the welcome/login screen. I'm not talking about the background, but the icon in the middle that is currently a picture of a fingerprint. 
 
I looked around at other threads and they either referred to editing .dll files (above my head a bit) or some picture in "C:Program FilesThinkVantage Fingerprint Software" which is not a directory on my machine. I'm running the latest version of Lenovo Fingerprint Manager Pro, and nothing in the Fingerprint Manager Pro program files looked persipacious.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T540p - Fingerprint Reader Not Working Upon Waking From Sleep For Windows Login

Mar 11, 2014

I have a brand new T540P with a Validity fingerprint reader. 
 
Rougly 80% of the time, the Fingerprint reader is unresponsive at the windows login screen after waking the computer from sleep. It works 100% of the time when booting from an off position, however. Once logged in, it also works 100% of the time. The issue only arises when logging into windows.
 
Things I have tried

-uninstalling/installing device in device manager and finger print manager pro software
-setting fingerprints through both fingerprint manager pro software (lenovo) OR through the built in windows fingerprint control panel options
-disabling "allow windows to turn off this device to save power" in device manager.
 
I should note as well that I have another T540P that I ordered as a replacement. Both models experience the same issue.
 
Is this a platform wide issue affecting all T540P models?

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Fingerprint Reader To Login On T44s Startup

Aug 26, 2014

I am a recent owner of the T440s (unfortunately with the LG panel).

I have checked every single fingerprint setting I could find. I also tried older drivers and older versions of the fingerprint manager.

When I start up the machine, I cannot use the fingerprint reader to login. It does start flashing, but no reaction whatsoever. I can only login using my password.

It does work very smoothly when waking from sleep or hibernation. It also becomes active when I want to enter bios. Just not at startup.

Something strange happened on my T440s today when I first turned it on...it booted to windows, then I entered my windows login pin, and then the screen went blank/dark instead of going to the windows 8 tiles. so I closed the lid, and it went to hibernate. and when I opened the lid again the screen came back on and it worked fine.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: ThinkPad T440s Windows 8 - Gray Screen With Camera Icon

Aug 17, 2014

I have a T440s and have an issue with the camera.  It seems to turn on (little green light comes on) when I access the Windows 8 camera app or any other app (like skype), but I do not see anything out of the camera except for a gray screen with a camera icon that has a bar through it.  It looks like the camera needs to be activated somewhere but where to look.  I have checked the driver and it seems to be fine (no yellow warning icon), I even unistalled and reinstalled the latest camera driver from the support website but that does not change anything.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Fingerprint Reader Stopped Working - Windows 8.1

Jan 26, 2015

I can no longer use or enroll finger prints on my T430s laptop running Windows 8.1!

ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software is 6.0.0.8102.

Sensor: TouchChip Fingerprint Coprocessor (WBF advanced mode). Driver version: 1.6.2.352. 
 
Symptom: when trying to enroll a fingerprint, I get the message: 'Use a longer stroke when scanning your fingerprint,' the sensor light turns from green to blinking orange (3 times), then back to green. Same happens when when trying to enroll from Windows PC Setting/ Sign-in Options/ Fingerprint (Add).
 
What I tried: uninstalling ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software and Driver (to include selecting 'Delete the driver software for this device'), rebooting, using Lenovo System Update to re-install ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software, rebooting. Have also tried to manually install previous versions of the Fingerprint Software to no avail. 
 
I had this similar problem in the past, since upgrading from Windows 8 to 8.1, but the steps above usually resolved it.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T440p / Windows 7 - Fingerprint Reader Fails On First Attempt To Log In But Works On Second After Delay

Jan 7, 2012

I have a T440p with Windows 7 Pro.  Except on rare occasions, I am unable to log into Windows with my first swipe across the fingerprint reader.   The green light is on when I do the first swipe and it immediately goes off and stays off for around 15 seconds, during which time another swipe does nothing.  Then the green light will return and a second finger swipe will log me on.
 
It's made using the fingerprint reader for login impractical, because it's faster to just go to the password screen and log in that way. 

Thinkpad T440p: i7-4800MQ | Crucial 16GB DDR3-1600, 9-9-9-24 | Samsung 840 Evo 500GB SSD | Intel 7260 Dual-Band AC Wireless | Windows 7 Pro

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: New T540p - Numlock Warning At Login

Feb 5, 2014

I have a new T540p and I have an issue with numlock when logging into the computer.  (This is NOT the numlock on-screen display icon).  Basically, whenever I get ready to type my password in the login box, it brings up a warning that my Numlock is on and that "your password may be entered incorrectly".
 
I understand the need for this warning on keyboards without a separate numpad, but my T540p has a full-size keyboard with a separate numpad PLUS I am using an external keyboard.  This error comes up both with and without an external keyboard.
 
This wouldn't be a problem except that this warning is especially aggressive and never in the same spot twice, and will sometimes even entirely cover the username AND password field with an ugly black box.
 
BTW, this is Windows 7 Pro (purchased downgraded from Win 8). I just can't figure this out, it's gotta be something with the Lenovo software but I can't find it.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T530 Fingerprint Reader Not Always Available

Jan 3, 2010

Periodically, when trying to unlock my T530 using the fingerprint reader, the reader is unresponsive (green light not on), forcing me to log on using my Windows password.  This only seems to happen when the machine is powered on and is locked.  After logging on manually and rebooting, the problem goes away, but will periodically return when the machine automatically locks itself after 10 minutes of inactivity.

Lenovo T540p T400 / T500 :: Can't Change Brightness

Dec 13, 2014

After updating my Thinkpad T540p, I cannot adjust the brightness in anyway. This is a problem because the screen is too birght and eats up battery.
 
It appears the only way to adjust the brightness is to use Intel HD Graphics, which isn't so convenient.
 
Fn keys don't work. changing the brightness on the Power Manager settings doesn't work. There is no brightness option on Windows Power Manager.
 
I have Intel HD Graphics 4600 10.18.10.3960
I have Lenovo Power Manager 6.66.3
 
Edit: In fact, I think it's posisble that Power Manager to just outright no longer works.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Bluetooth / Camera And Fingerprint Sensor Options Not Available In T530

Jan 26, 2014

I just recently purchased a ThinkPad T530 (type/model# 2429-C93) which should have the following options present according to Lenovo´s product information:

i5-3320M(2.6GHz), 4GB RAM, 500GB 7200rpm HD, 15.6in 1366x768 LCD, Intel HD Graphics, Intel 802.11agn wireless, WWAN, Bluetooth, 1Gb Ethernet, UltraNav, Secure Chip, Fingerprint reader, Camera, 6c Li-Ion, Win7 Pro 64.

However, there is no Bluetooth device detected while trying to install the respective driver. Also, installation of the Integrated Camera Driver runs, but disappears at some point in time, with no error message or pop-up indicating a successful installation. Third, while trying to configure the Fingerprint sensor, the ThinkPad Fingerprint software states there is no device available.

Both camera and FP sensor are physically visible, where the green Bluetooth LED known from an R61 and T410 is missing at the lower edge of the lid.

Fn+F5 and Fn+F6 keys don´t provide an option to toggle on/off Bluetooth and camera, but only WiFi/WWAN and Audio options.

Device Manager does not show any unknown devices or such related to these functions.

Is there a chance that these options are missing in a specific laptop, despite specified for its type/model# (serial#: R9V8MNB)?

Or do I need to first activate the options in the BIOS?

Lenovo ThinkPad T440s T400 / T500 :: Fingerprint Reader Is No Longer Working?

Dec 16, 2014

I installed the most recent ThinkVantage Password Manager software yesterday through the Lenovo Solution Software.  It is version 4.70.20.  Today, when I booted my computer, my fingerprint reader is no longer working (it worked yesterday before the installation and all day yesterday after the installation).  I cannot find a fingerprint reader in Device Manager, but there is one "Unknown USB Device (device Descriptor Request Failed)" which is listed as not working in device manager.
 
I feel like the software update killed the fingerprint driver as it is no longer available in any application (windows logon, website logon, etc.).  
 
I've installed no other software recently and have uninstalled and reinstalled both the ThinkVantage Password Manager and Lenovo Fingerprint Manager Pro (version 8.01.26(x64) today to try to resolve the issue.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Failed Fingerprint Reader And Constant Blue Screen On T430

Aug 13, 2013

I believe my fingerprint reader died a death after a windows update.  I have tried reinstalling drivers several times but no luck, the computer doesn't even seem to recognise that a scanner even exists anymore.  Its incredibly frustrating...well not as bad as this constant blue screen and crashing.  I don't really understand the reason for it, but to be fair I don't really know what im looking for when the blue screen appears....it mentions something about a usb driver i believe.  There isnt even anything plugged in to any ports when the crashes take place.
 
Im really not happy about these issues with a laptop that is no more than 6 weeks old.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Fingerprint Sensor Stopped Working - Cannot Communicate With Sensor

Jan 9, 2010

I have a T500 (LENOVO 2081CTO ThinkPad T500) running W7 32 bit.  Been working fine since September 10.  Today when simply trying to logon the fingerprint sensor has stopped working.  Laptop had not even been moved, simply resting on desk and then switched on from powered off.

A few times since have received message that "USB device is being installed"  with finally "USB Device could not be installed.  There is a problem with your device."  Device Manager showed a problem with "USB Composite device"

Powered off/on gave same symptom.

Downloaded & installed latest fingerprint software 7wf162ww.exe.  Installed OK.  USB device appeared to then automatically pick up and reinstall correctly.  BUT still unable to use fingerprint to logon or for with Thinkvantage Client Security.

Using Thinkvantage Lenovo Fingerprint Software gives error "Cannot communicate with sensor.  Please confirm the sensor is ready." 
 
I've also noticed the keyboard around the fingerprint sensor is very warm, almost hot.  As if it is being constantly turned on?
 
Fingerprint sensor is AuthenTec Inc. AES2810

Lenovo ThinkPad L R/SL :: L540 / Win 7 - Cannot Login Using ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software

Jun 22, 2012

I purchased a new L540 running Windows 7 and enrolled a finger.  I can use the fingerprint to unlock but not to login.  I've reviewed forum postings that suggest that I need to Change Biometric Settings, however the are set as "Biometrics On, Allow Users to log on to Windows using their Fingerprints."  I note that the fingerprint software on the L540 is different than my 2 yr old W520, which had a way different interface.

Lenovo X240 Series ThinkPad :: Fingerprint Reader Power Up Or Login

Dec 22, 2013

I've got an x240 with bios enabled fingerprint and the latest fingerprint driver/utlity installed, a fingerprint registered and all the options checked for fingerprint to be integrated and boot.
 
When the laptop is powered off the fingerprint swipe doesn't boot the machine, no LED on it, it's dead. How do I make fingerprint power on work?When the laptop is in sleep mode the fingerprint swipe doesn't boot the machine, no LED on it, it's dead. How do I make fingerprint resume from standby work?When win7 boots and it's at the CTRL+ALT+DEL login screen the fingerprint LED is green, a fingerprint swipe does nothing. How do I get single sign on to work?Only when I manually hit CTRL+ALT+DEL will the Fingerprint graphic then show on screen, at that point the swipe works. How do get the fingerprint to log me in without any manual intervention? The x201 I had previously did all this without an issue.
