Remove Toshiba laptop BIOS password?

If it is an Admin password, cmos reset will not work, only works for power on passwords.

If an admin password has been set you will need to send it off to be reset.

Some say this utility will reset bios passwords on older Toshiba laptops

    Bypass BIOS password set by faulty Toshiba firmware on Satellite A55-S1065 laptop?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite l500 laptop, when I power it on, it shows a black screen and asks for the BIOS password.

    It is neither going to the BIOS or booting up...

    I do not know this password, nor how to remove it. What do I do?

      In some cases a replacement motherboard is needed. Contact Toshiba or the folks that sold it to you.

      Did you try asking the person who SET the password?

    I think I have read somewhere that Toshiba laptops does not store passwords in the battery-backed RAM in the cmos chip, so if you pull the battery you will only loose all the BIOS settings but not the password.
