Iv just got one of these, an i am having two problems with the keyboard, 1) when i turn the computer on it wont recoqnise the keyboard (its usb) so then i have to plug in my old one via the PS2 port then reboot, once it gets into windows the keyboard works fine i can then unplug my old one
2) The fingerprint id wont work, i have registerd my fingers but wen i go to log into i.e msn it does't work (msn just says no password in field) but i thought the whole reason of fingerprint reader is so u dont have to type your passwords in. thanks for reading my problem if you have any ideas on this please help me.


P.S i have installed the software and updated the drivers



thanks jonny
