I have an HP Pavilion laptop running Vista x64 SP2 with 2.53GHz dual processor and 4Gb RAM, along with a fingerprint reader. I installed Stardock Bootskin and Logon Studio to customize. The installations came up with an error during the process but still continued through to completion. At first, it looked as though it worked OK. But what I came to find was that several problems emerged. First, my logon functionality became compromised, such that I could not lo

[quote who="Zubaz" reply="5" id="3153711"]Both applications are layering on top of base windows and conflicting. You may have to pick which item you want the most.[/quote] It's rather peculiar... Stardock Logon Studio or Bootskin should have nothing to do with the fingerprint reader. A fingerprint reader is a fairly common feature. Stardock is the "add on" that comes afterward and should be respectful of what software is installed. In any c
After uninstalling both Stardock and Digital Persona, I was able to reinstall Digital Persona and get my logon functionality back to normal. I still would like to be able to change my logon screen background image... if indeed there is a workaround for this problem. If anybody has some advice on what I can do to rectify this problem, please let me know. Thanks.

I installed Stardock Logon Studio on my Vista x64 HP Laptop with fingerprint reader software (Digital Persona). Upon completion, I noticed that the fingerprint reader icon no longer displayed status information below the fingerprint icon. Also, when I would log on, a Logon User Process error would occur. The Event Viewer for Windows Applications revealed this error: Faulting application LogonUI.exe, version 6.0.6001.18000, time stamp 0x4791960d, faulting modu
Well, I think I've gotten closer to narrowing down the problem... It appears to me that the issue at hand is Stardock conflicting with fingerprint reader software installed (DigitalPersona). Somehow, it created an issue in the registry. The only other entry I found on-line that mentions this was by another user in this sub forum, and they also have an HP laptop with fingerprint reader. So, I'm going to see if I can uninstall the DigitalPerson
[quote who="yrag" reply="1" id="3152172"]Elevated Command prompt: sfc /scannow Reboot[/quote] I did that. Some errors were found, but nothing related to logon functionality that I can tell... I rebooted and same issue remains.

I installed BootSkin and Logon Studio on my Vista x64 laptop, since all the posts I'd seen about it showed this was supported. But apparently my system has a conflict with this software. I have a fingerprint reader installed. When Logon Studio is installed, my Logon process is compromised. First, I cannot log on via the keyboard. When I click on a user icon, the screen pauses, then refreshes back to locked state with no option to enter a password. &nb
I'm raising this topic back to life, because I'm having the same problem. I have a well maintained system that is virus free. I run Vista x64 Home Premium on an HP Pavilion DV5T laptop with 4Gb RAM. I installed the Stardock Logon Studio and Bootskin products and noticed that I got an error while running the install. But apparently it completed as the software was present. I could run it and custom select my images. However, I also
