    Is anyone else having an issue with the Digitalpersona software
    having the little "x" over it indicating that the biometric sensor
    is not connected? I get this frequently and if I open Device Manager
    and disable the Validity sensor, then re-enable it, Digitalpersona
    will then work normal again. Either that or a reboot.

    I can get zero help from HP who blames everything from McAfee
    to Digitalpersona to my late late Uncle who died by way of a farming
    accident. (joke)

    Digitalpersona will of course not offer any help because they can rest
    on the fact that I have an OEM version of the software.

    I miss my Clevo.
