Customizing Your VAIO Computer
Logging Onto Your System
To use the fingerprint authentication functionality in place of password entry to log onto your system, you need to set the
power-on, hard disk, and Windows passwords and configure your computer for fingerprint authentication.
For setting the power-on, hard disk, and Windows passwords, see Setting the Password (page 111).
Logging onto Windows
If you have set the Windows password, you can substitute fingerprint authentication for Windows password entry. To log onto
Windows, swipe the finger with the enrolled fingerprint across the fingerprint sensor when the Windows log-on window
appears.
For detailed information on logging onto Windows, click Start, point to All Programs and Protector Suite QL, and click Help
to read the help file.
Boot Security functionality
If you have set the power-on password (page 112) and/or the hard disk password (page 115), you can substitute fingerprint
authentication for password entry when starting your computer.
For detailed information on the Boot Security functionality, click Start, point to All Programs and Protector Suite QL, and
click Help to read the help file.
