I've got one too, I don't think it supports the Windows Biometric Framework...

Doesn't even support 64 bit...

No beta software is available. Fingerprint Reader products are not supported on Windows 7 Beta.

hey ;

i have a simple solution ;

try to change compatibility mode of all "DPAgnt.exe ,DPConsol.exe ,DPExpImp.exe ,DpFpLogonManager.exe ,DpHost.exe ,DPRunDll.exe ,DPWinLct.exe" file tos "windows xp(SP2)" and run as administrator and restart , after you have to run finger print registration console , make sure that the DPAgnt.exe is not runing , register your finger print and restart , after restarting disable compatibility mode of the last mentioned *.exe files ; thats work on my macbook with windows 7 on it ; i guess thats the solution ;

if it work , tell other users about it , "chk.inf@gmail.com"

thx a lot ;
