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 and Windows passwords and configure your computer for fingerprint authentication.

For setting the power-on and Windows passwords, see Setting the Password (page 91).

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, All Programs, Protector Suite QL, and Help to read the help file.

Power-on Security feature

If you have set the power-on password (page 91), you can substitute fingerprint authentication for password entry when starting your computer.
