Fingerprint reader/Vista 64

[JP Miller]

I purchased reader a month ago anticipating use on my new computer that just
arrived. Then I find it will not work with Vista 64. I got spoiled with it
on XP.

Does anyone know when software will be available for Vista 64?

If not does anyone know of a good fingerprint reader that is compatable with
Vista 64?

Only the manufacturer knows that. You didn't even tell us the brand and
model of the reader.

The last I heard was that there would be no 64bit driver for the MS
FingerPrint Reader. I understand that there is another make, but the driver
comes from the same company.

Thanks for your reply. Brand is Microsoft. And only implied indication of
compatabilty with Vista 64 by fact offered with my computer (HP) which has
Vista 64 installed. Have now gone to Digital Persona site. They make reader
for Microsoft. It appears they have Vista 64 software for their version that
is obtainable seperately. - I hope. I'll check tomorrow.
