Hi gv2jae..

Start up your computer
1. Keep pressing "F8" as the laptop computer starts.
2. When the window "Advanced Boot Options" opens, choose "Safe Mode" with arrow key and confim by pressing the Enter key, then PC enters the Safe Mode.
3. Once you are in the Safe mode Click "Administrator" on the Windows login screen.
Take note that you have set the Administrator password before, you need to input the changed password instead of leaving "Password" field blank.
4. Then click Start > Control Panel > User Accounts > Select the account that is locked and change the password.
5. Restart laptop and login into the account you just created using your new password.

You'll find everything you need here. Down load to a cd and boot the laptop from it.

You may have to look for the BIOS password reset program, but it is worth the price. Oh, wait, it's free.

If this information was helpful, please rate it high. thanks

yes they are almost identical

If you contact www.toshiba.com and assuming that is where you downloaded the firmware from, the tech guys will answer your question. If you got the bios firmware upgrade from elswhere, talk to the supplier for a password.

You'll need to Reset your BIOS password. To do this, go to another PC, and visit youtube to find a guide, or ring toshiba support and have them talk you through it.

Hello,
I am not sure that the removal of the CMOS battery would erase the passord on boot. Better take it to a Toshiba Certified Service Center.
Hope it helps.

It means that your laptop has a BIOS password associated with it powering on and will not go any further until the correct password is given. It will then go on to the boot up screen. IN most cases these passwords can be reset by "shorting" the teo pins on the cmos battery socket and then powering the laptop up. you then place the normal cmos battery plug back in place and reboot the laptop, there should be no more password but the BIOS will have to be reset as far as the correct time and date.

Download program killCMOS, this program reset your bios and delete your password

There is a jumper that will clear the BIOS password on most of the newer Toshiba laptops such as this model. Here is a link to an article showing where the jumpers are located on various models of Toshiba laptops.
