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 103).
Logging onto Windows
If you have enrolled fingerprints for your user account, you can substitute fingerprint authentication for Windows password
(page 110) entry. To log onto Windows, swipe the finger with the enrolled fingerprint across the fingerprint sensor when the
Windows log-on screen appears.
For detailed information on logging onto Windows, click Start, point to All Programs, Protector Suite QL, and click Help to
read the help file.
Power-on Security feature
If you have set the power-on password (page 103) and/or the hard disk password (page 106), you can substitute fingerprint
authentication for password entry when starting your computer.
For detailed information on the Power-on Security feature, click Start, point to All Programs, Protector Suite QL, and click
Help to read the help file.
