How do I access the BIOS after setting a Supervisor User password on my Toshiba Tecra A10?

Question

I've set a supervisor password on a Tecra A10 laptop, but now I can't choose the boot device or enter the BIOS as supervisor.

I do know the supervisor password however I don't get the prompt to enter it. Do you have to use a different keyboard shortcut to access the BIOS with the Supervisor user on boot?

Solution

You need to hold the Insert key down while powering the laptop on. You will then get prompted for the supervisor password.

You Sir, saved my day! (couldn't find that information in any piece of manual I was looking up on Toshiba's web pages)
