Re: Need help getting the fingerprint reader working for log
If I were you, I would:
- DISable the FPR in the BIOS
- UNinstall all FPR related software
- remove palmrest and DISconnect the FPR (if you are technical enough).
Those FPRs are sort of semi-working in the business Thinkpads, but in the El Cheapo versions like the 3000 series I wouldn't trust them at all!

Re: Need help getting the fingerprint reader working for log
I solved it with a install of windows 8 and the ThinkPad software for windows 7 X64
