I am using Win 7 64 bit home premium edition, and I'm a novice...or at least I think I am. I took my computer (HP Pavilion dm4 1065dx) to a fix-it place because it was running slowly and also because I couldn't log on: forgot password and fingerprint reader was disabled. <---- I was the one who disabled it accidentally, when trying to improve the speed...disabling unnecessary start up programs. See? Novice!
When I got it back, instead of just having one log on icon, there was the administrator log on. As I understand it, this is disabled by default, so the guy who worked on my computer felt the need to place that on the sign in screen, I'm assuming, to help him log on. Anywho....
How can this be disabled, the administrator log on? It isn't that big of a deal, but what I'm attempting to do is get the fingerprint reader to work with my account, and right now it just works with the administrator account. I've tried deleting all fingerprints and beginning fresh but to no avail. I log on using my account (not admin), then set up the fingerprint reader, and the fingerprint reader only opens the administrative user account.
Soooo....I'm thinking, if there isn't an administrator log on, then the fingerprint reader MUST recognize my log on as the only one and then it will recognize my fingerprint.
