Forgot Windows 7 Password, you can remove or reset it. For removing Windows Passwords in safety, I highly recommend windows password reset tools. Last week, and then I downloaded one and used it to remove the lost password successfully.

    This sounds pretty interesting. We used a similar software at my tech support job a few years ago. Called "Windows Password Seeker". It works very prefect to regain your password. Also use boot CD/DVD.This software from: http://www.passwordseeker.com

The most common way that most of us know on how to reset or clear the BIOS password is to physically remove the power from the computer by disconnecting the power plug and then removing the cmos battery for 30 minutes from the motherboard. Another way is to reset the clear CMOS jumper on the motherboard itself. Both of the 2 methods mentioned works because most motherboards use a battery to sustain the BIOS/CMOS settings for the motherboards PROM chip. So by cutting off cmos the battery power, the BIOS/CMOS settings will be erased. Hope this helps

    I know a risk-free method to retrieve the password and it need no reinstalling Windows. The software program called Windows Password Seeker which has been recommended at about.com. You could Google Windows Password Seeker or download it fromhttp://www.passwordseeker.com. It can recover almost all Windows passwords in seconds. It also compatible with windows 7.

    How to use the Toshiba BIOS password removal tool: connect the plug to the parallel port on your Toshiba laptop and turn on the laptop.

    You should bypass the BIOS password and the laptop will boot directly to the operating system.
    You can find and purchase the BIOS removal plug here.

    Before you buy, make sure it works with your Toshiba laptop.
    UPDATE for all Toshiba owners:

    Some newer Toshiba laptops can start asking for the BIOS password even if the password has never been set. This affects the following models: Satellite A100, A105, A130, A135, A200, A205, L35, M200, M205, P100, P105, P200, P205 and probably some other models.

    Before you can use the laptop, the BIOS password has to be cleared.

Hello, My name is Keith and I run a small computer repair store in Alabama. I have a customer that has a Toshiba Satellite C75D-B7200 and he cannot remember the BIOS password

Hello Keith!


First of all, there is an OEM Toshiba software out there to flash the bios directly from windows, doing so will remove any password and restore the BIOS to it's original settings with an updated version. If that still doesn't work, consider a 3rd party software to recover the password or if the bios is socketed and none of the above solutions worked, order a new one directly from Toshiba.

Be ABSOLUTELY SURE to flash the BIOS with the correct version according to the model number of the laptop and that you connect the laptop with the power adaptor so it does not run out of battery in the middle of the process failing to do so might rend the computer unusable with a corrupted BIOS file.

I forgot BIOS Password

Get onlineand got to www.google.com In the google search box type: "ToshibaSupport" (without the quotes and put your manufacturer name before Support). Look for downloads and drivers. Enter your model number and operatingsystem when requested. Look for Manuals and search them for Bios Password or Bios Password Reset.
I searched and Toshiba did not have any manuals or drivers for this model. Must be really old.
Anyway try the link below for removing the bios password.
http://www.ehow.com/how_6795884_reset-toshiba-tecra-bios-password.html
You could try removing the cmos battery.

You will have to remove the power cord, remove the batteryand remove the CMOS Battery that is located on the motherboard. On mostcomputers you will have to take the laptop apart to get to the cmosbattery. On some systems it looks like a silver nickel that you will needa small flat head screw driver to pop it out. On other systems it will beinside a vinyl covering and has a cable that plugs into the motherboard. Once you remove the CMOS Battery, let it sit for an hour or two then put itback in and put the laptop back together. Boot the machine and you'llprobably have to go into the Bios or System Setup because the system will haveforgotten the date, time and password.

THE PASSWORD IS REQUIRED AFTER YOU TURN ON THE COMPUTER, AND I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS IT.

If it is a Windows LOGIN password read this:
If you have another account on your laptop that has administrator rights, log in into that account and change the password for your account. If you have an administrator account (even if you don't try putting in "Administrator" and leave password field blank) try using that account to reset the password. If no luck, try one of the following:
- see this for XP http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321305
- or this for Vista/Win7 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/What-to-do-if-you-forget-your-Windows-password

If it's a BIOS password read this:
To reset BIOS take the battery out, if that does not work you will have to reset jumper J1.

If none of the above helped, you can use thrid party software from Hiren's Boot CD, it has password recovery and password reset tools both for Windows under Password Tools and BIOS under BIOS / CMOS Tools. Here is the download link: http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/Hirens.BootCD.12.0.zip

Hello! My laptop Toshiba sattelite L455s5975 is asking BIOS password. Unfortunately I cant remember it. Is it possible to delete (or ignore) the BIOS password to make my laptop able to work...

Hi,
If you have forgot BIOS password then you have to reset CMOS jumper setting. Please follow the below steps: Open the Laptop back panel. Locate the CMOS battrey, remove it & then with the help of a screw driver keep on pressing the terminal inside it and turn ON the computer for 10 secs and Turn Off (make sure you keep on pressing the terminal with a screwdriver while turning ON). It will short the BIOS setting. Now, fix the CMOS battrey & restart the computer. This will take care of the issue.
Thanks and regards,

Forgot my bios password what can i do??

Hello

Most laptops have a way to clear the BIOS either through chip removal or a jumper or pad setting. Since you didn't list the Brand and model I can't give specifics. Some laptops even have a reset switch which you can access with a toothpick.
