I use the biometrics fingerprint reader in Windows 7 using an HP nc4400 laptop.

Everything works really well.

From a purely "cool/geek" factor I'd like to see the images of the fingerprint scans. I'm sure I remember with XP and HP's own software it used to show the scan as you logged.

Is there anyway to use the fingerprint reader in windows 7 and see the images as they're scanned?

    Don't! Jamie and Adam might see that image and we know what that means: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAfAVGES-Yc ;-) (footage 2006) – Arjan Oct 02 '09 at 10:38
  • What is the fingerprint reader you're using? For what I've seen [here](http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/sm/WF06b/12139188-12139280-12139280-12139280-12434628-12399232-77987855.html?dnr=1) your laptop doesn't have one builtin. – fmanco Jun 23 '12 at 02:24
  • @criziot at the top right part of the monitor there is a biometric reader. – Nima Jun 23 '12 at 07:51
  • @Thomas Shields have you tried the XP driver to see the images as OP mentioned? – avirk Jun 24 '12 at 18:44
  • What software were you using on Windows XP? – wizlog Jun 29 '12 at 18:08

This page details how to see the scans from Linux. You could probably compile the aes2501 utility for Windows and use that, or integrate it into your own application.
