i would check and make sure the fan is running ok.

This is the page to read How To Understanding System Restore Refresh Res TOSHIBA FORUMS

to system restore Windows 8.

From memory, there is no jumper. Look for bare solder pads near the bios battery... usually marked 'RST' or 'FRST' or similar. There will be a few pairs of pads grouped, you only need to short out the RST ones (a pair) Its a bit of a juggling act, but short them out during the process of applying power to the laptop. so... short out, maintain the short, plug in power, power up laptop, maintaining short for about 3 seconds..... remove power, restart.

I think what you are after is a reset of the laptop to factory default condition.

If that is the case follow instructions on this link. FAQ How do run System Recovery Support Toshiba Computers Laptops...

Otherwise if you want to reset bios password then go to the instructions at this site. Toshiba Satellite P755 Bios Password Removal

You have to ask the previous owner of the pc to remove his account off your pc or get his password to manually remove his account

Windoze?

Ah c'mon, everybody loves Windblows!

"Restart.......otherwise.......contact somebody who gives a rats a**.

(Yes. I censored that)

I'll tell ya what...........

They make GOOD boat anchors for toy boats. (Ken and Barbie size)

If you skip one across the water, flung out of a boat doin' 40, them babies will S-K-I-P!

Toosh,...... toosh,....... toosh............look at it GO!

Feel better now that the laptop has been Properly slammed?

Some big eared galoot stated wiping the harddrive, eh?
Meaning what exactly?

You have the Restoration Disk in hand?
Told to perform a Full Install? (Destructive Installation)

You were instructed to perform a Full Install using the Recovery files on the harddrive?

Looking at reviews, the earliest I have seen is November 29, 2012.
Means this laptop is definitely still under warranty.

Best Buy, or Office Max, or whoever; doesn't want to honor it; doesn't matter. They can go stick their finger up their collective noses.

Toshiba on the other hand -> Better!

Here we contact the State Attorney General's Office, of our state; and the Consumer Division.
(Consumer Division. Not all have this entity. They do have an entity like it, however)
File a COMPLAINT.

The S.A.G.O. will smoke 'em like the Fantastic Four on Doc Ock!

Up to a $10,000 a day fine, I hear.

The UK, and Australia have this type of entity too, I have been told.

Your laptop has issues of a hardware nature, and a simple software fix isn't going to do it; plus YOU are not responsible, therefore should not pay a dime.

For additional questions please post in a Comment.

For me easy;

1) The Dell Inspiron 15R i5 Notebook PC comes with an Intel i5 processor, model 2410M (2.3GigaHertz frequency rate),

It uses DDR3 at 1066MHz, (Why would you?), or DDR3 at 1333MHz, and up to 8GB's of it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Core_i5_microprocessors#.22Sandy_Bridge.22_.2832_nm.29_3

It has Intel HD Graphics 3000 graphics built-in. (It's in the Intel Core i5 processor. It is Integrated Graphics)

Ummm, no.

2) The Toshiba Satellite L755-S5173 Notebook PC, comes with an Intel Core i5 also.

Model 2450M Intel Core i5 processor;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Core_i5_microprocessors#.22Sandy_Bridge.22_.2832_nm.29_3

It comes with an Nvidia GeForce GT525M graphics chipset.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Nvidia_graphics_processing_units#GeForce_500M_.285xxM.29_series

A LOT better than the Intel HD Graphics 3000 GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), above.

From what I can see it is a graphics chipset soldered to the motherboard,

http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/Toshiba-Satellite-L755-L755D-L750-L750D/dismantle-laptop-3.htm

Click on the photo in Step 27. Bottom view of motherboard.
Look at the black Fan Assembly, and the copper curved Cooling Tube.

Go over to the far left of the Cooling Tube, to the rectangular silvery shape. Has 4 black screws in it. (This metal plate sits on top of the Processor)

In-between this rectangular metal plate, and the bottom of the motherboard, is the Nvidia graphics chipset.

Square dark green shape (Circuit board), with a smaller dark square shape in it. (GPU)

Means it isn't a graphics adapter card, and therefore not upgradeable.

Uses DDR3 Sdram (SO-DIMM) 1333MHz ram memory, and up to 8GB.

3) Lenovo G470 Notebook PC has an Intel Core i5, Model 2450M also.
UP to 8GB's of DDR3 Sdram (SO-DIMM) ram memory, at 1333Megahertz, too.

Intel HD Graphics 3000 is used also. (Integrated Graphics)

Ummm, no.

My choice?
The Toshiba Satellite L755-S5173.

Better graphics.

One of the things you ALWAYS look at for a laptop, because 95 percent of the time you cannot upgrade it.

(A LOT of laptop manufacturers state - Graphics Card, when the truth is it is not a replaceable graphics adapter card, as used in a desktop computer )

This means you are stuck with the graphics of the laptop, until you obtain a better one.
