Logging on to the system
After you enroll your ngerprint, log on to the system as follows:
1. Set a power-on password or a hard disk password, or both.
2. Turn your computer off and then on again.
3. When prompted, swipe your nger over the reader.
4. On request, type your power-on password, your hard disk password, or both. The enrolled ngerprint is
now associated with your power-on password, your hard disk password, or both.
The next time you start the computer, you can log on to the system by swiping your nger over the
reader once.
Attention: If you always use your ngerprint to log on to the system, you may forget your password. Write
down your password, and keep it in a safe place. If you forget it and for some reason you cannot swipe your
nger across the reader—for example, if you injure that nger—you cannot start the computer or change
