■You must ensure that you use the TOSHIBA Password Utility to register a User Password before using the Fingerprint boot authentication and its extended function to allow fingerprints to be used to access the computer when it is turned on.

■If the fingerprint authentication process fails five times, a preset time limit is exceeded, or you press the BACK SPACE key, [Password =] will be displayed on the screen and you will have to enter either the User Password or Supervisor Password manually in order to start the computer.

■When swiping your finger, please ensure that you do it slowly and at a constant speed. If you find that this does not improve the authentication rate, you should try to adjust the speed at which the finger is swiped.

■If there are any changes in the environment or settings related to authorization, you will be required to provide authorization information such as a User Password (and, if applicable, the HDD(Hard Disk Drive) password).

Overview about Fingerprint Single Sign-on feature

This is a feature that allows the user to complete the authentication for both the User/BIOS Password (and, if applicable, the HDD (Hard Disk Drive) Password) and logging onto Windows using only one fingerprint authentication when booting up.

It is necessary to register the User/BIOS Password and Windows Logon Password before using the Fingerprint boot authentication and this Fingerprint Single Sign-On Feature. Please use the TOSHIBA Password Utility to register your User/BIOS Password. If Windows Logon is not the default for your system, see Manual to register your Windows Logon Password.

Only one fingerprint authentication is required to replace the User/BIOS Password (and, if applicable, the HDD (Hard Disk Drive) Password) and the Windows Logon Password.
