Lenovo ThinkCentre A51 - Manual (Page 33)

This setting is useful when SafeGuard Easy is installed on a system without BIOS passwords and is
utilizing fingerprint authentication to decrypt the hard drive.
• Sounds: Fingerprint Software can be configured to play a sound contained in a WAV file under various
circumstance during the fingerprint authentication process. The registry settings for these sounds are
as follows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Protector Suite QL\1.0\settings]
'Success'
REG_SZ "sndSuccess" = [path to sound file]
The file designated will play whenever a successful swipe is registered.
'Failure'
REG_SZ "sndFailure" = [path to sound file]
The file designated will play whenever an unsuccessful swipe is attempted.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\fingerprint
'Scan'
REG_SZ "sndScan" = [path to sound file]
The file designated will play whenever the fingerprint verification dialog is displayed for Client Security
Solution-related operations. If the value is not present or is empty then no sound is played.
'Quality'
REG_SZ "sndQuality" = [path to sound file]
The file designated will play whenever an unreadable swipe has occurred. If the value is not present
or is empty then no sound is played.
• Password validation during system unlock: By default, the fingerprint software validates stored
password during system unlock. The validation requires contacting the domain controller and might
cause delay. To avoid the delay, disable the password validation during system unlock and by editing
the registry as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Protector Suite QL\1.0\settings]
REG_DWORD "DoNotTestUnlock"=1
The fingerprint software will continue to validate the password at system logon.
Note: When the above registry key is set to 1, if the domain administrator changes the user's when the
user's system is locked, the fingerprint software will have the old password stored until the user logs
off and logs on again.
• Unlocking the computer with fingerprint: By default, ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software is configured
to authenticate the Windows logon account, and to unlock the computer. To disable its feature of
authenticating the Windows logon account, edit the registry as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Protector Suite QL\1.0\settings\Provider]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Protector Suite QL\1.0\settings\Provider\ProviderFilters]
"{18CBEEAA-6708-41A1-9379-D08915333CF2}"=dword:0000000d
