Problem with new fingerprint reader

#1 Post by K_X201 » Wed Jan 15, 2014 4:33 pm

Hi All,

I bought a finger print reader and palm rest for my x230 (ebay). After installation it just sits there blinking away. When I swipe my finger it tries to read (flashes orange after swipe) but obviously it doesn't recognize. Is there a way to bypass the fingerprint reader and get to bios? only way I can manage at the moment is to un plug the reader.

Any help with this issue very welcome.

Regards,

K
