"Integrated fingerprint readers are available on specific models of HP PCs. In order to use a fingerprint reader, you will need to set up a user account with a password on the PC. This will allow you to log on to your PC with a swipe of a designated finger. You may also use the fingerprint reader to fill in password fields on web sites and other applications that require a log in. Once you create your fingerprint identity, by registering your fingerprints and associating them to your Windows Vista login identity, you can set up a Single Sign On service that allows you to use your fingerprint scanner to create credentials for any application that requires a user name and password."
