Booting into Vista, Log on Screen-says Initialize device or osmething like that, What is this?

On log on screen to left on laptop it has Initialize (something) and then the user names to log in as..

If I click on this, it just takes me to a screen that makes no sense and I can switch user...

Comments?

Thanks

Can you tell us what the (something) is... The question is unclear i am not sure of what your trying to describe.

It would indeed help if you could explain what the problem is and what the exact wording on the screen is

Please logon and Initialize your device - is what it says with the 2 logon icons to the roght of it--Mine and Guest.

If you click on the Please logon and initialize your device button, it goes to ascreen that simply says switch user..

Is there some kind of seperate device that youa re using in conjunction with windows? Or did this just randomly happen? Are you even able to get to the desktop?

Sure can get to desktop, I just log in. Nothing connected to laptop at all. I am wondering if it has to do with fingerprint reader which I never set up which is built-in. No big deal. Did a Google search and came up with nothing. I can live with it if you want to give up. But perhaps others may chime in.

Thanks
