Help Please!!

Hey guys I need some help. So yesterday, I installed Windows 7. Not quite a clean install because I chose custom but I couldn't boot from disc. Anyway, I deleted windows.old and installed some drivers but am having trouble with my fingerprint reader. I installed the driver and it says up to date or whatever and i installed digital persona but, it says it can't detect the reader . I've been trying to figure this out but I have no idea what to do. I'm running windows 7 64-bit.

PS: One more question: Supposedly we're supposed to have a HP device disc or something? My windows 7 package has two identically looking discs and I can't tell the difference between the two....insight anyone?

Thanks for any advice!

 

What is the exact model # from the bottom of your notebook? You are using the upgrade disks to upgrade from Vista right?
Go here for the fingerprint reader driver.

 

I have the dv3t-2000 and i believe i did go here to get it, but why isnt digitalpersona recognizing my fingerprint reader? i saw a solution i think that required me to change 7 .exe files in the bin folder of digitalpersona but maybe that was for an older version? because i dont see 7 .exe 's in mine...

 

ok i found something that might help

Just be careful where you download drivers from. Also try right click troubleshoot compatibility and try Vista since it ran properly in Vista.

 

Still no luck....anyone have an older driver i can use? would that work?

 

Windows 7 has it's own fingerprint program which only works upon secure log-in. Digital Persona doesn't seem to be compatible with Win7.

 

what's it called and how do I go about getting it?
