Fix 2: Update your fingerprint reader driver

Driver Easy handles it all.

You can update your drivers automatically with either the FREE or the Pro version of Driver Easy. But with the Pro version it takes just 2 clicks:

   You can also click Update to do it for free if you like, but it’s partly manual.
