How do you configure the W7 login dialog to display the Smart Card Login option? I have a domain-based W7 client, but haven't connected a smart card reader or installed a mini-driver.. Thanks in advance..

Once you install your smart card reader and have a smart card plugged into the computer, it should show you the prompt on the login screen automatically. Thanks,Tanner --- This is posted as-is and has no warranty or guarantee ---

Hi, Thanks for posting in Technet. I suggest you read the following article. How Smart Card Logon Works in Windows Tanner is correct. When log on you need to press CTRL+ALT+DEL to start the logon process. Then all valid certifications are enumerated and displayed from all smart cards and presented to the user.
