    I know you can do it with the SZ series, not sure about Thinkpads though

    If you disable the Client Security Solution, you'll have the option of using just your Windows password or your fingerprint. To disable CSS, go to File > Advanced... (I think that's what it is---I don't have a ThinkPad with me, so I don't know the exact wording).
