HP Fingerprint Fails (Temporary Fix)

Set Windows Biometric Service to Restart the Services after failure.


You can also set subsequent failures to Restart the Service as well and you can also set the fail count to reset more frequently. This is just a work around until an update is publish or a better solution is develop. I figured that I should post it since I have never seen a solution for this issue. I even called HP when I first bought my laptop and they had me restart my computer a few times, but they never realy gave me a solution.

A control with ID 'topSiteMap' could not be found.


ERROR:
The DataSourceID of 'TopNavigationMenuV4' must be the ID of a control of type IHierarchicalDataSource.  A control with ID 'topSiteMap' could not be found.


To fix this you will have to go to the following address:

http://yoursite/_layouts/settings.aspx

Click site collection features and activate any features that were previously required on your site. For me I had to activate Visual Studio Team Foundation Server Web Part Collection because I had been testing TFS.

WSUS Not working and reinstall of System Center fails.

Browsing the websites you will notice:
HTTP Error 404.4 - Not Found The resource you are looking for does not have a handler associated with it.

Viewing EVENT Logs you will notice:
The DSS Authentication Web Service is not working.
The SimpleAuth Web Service is not working.
The Client Web Service is not working.
The Server Synchronization Web Service is not working.
The Reporting Web Service is not working.

Fix: Uninstall add-on's to IIS7 example, URL Rewrite and/or Application Request Routing Also re-install .net 4.0 You will also have to remove the Policy and GPO groups created by System Center

Next issue: Virtualization Management Server Error Message: System.InvalidOperationException: Service MSSQL$MICROSOFT$VMM$ was not found on computer I had to remove all references in my host file to get this to install correctly...

My main disappointment is with System Centers uninstall and reinstall, it's dirty!!!
