Ask Toshiba. If you genuinely forgot password and can proove that it's yours they'll help.

Tap the restart or turn on the computer, soon as you turn on the computer, tap the f12 button until you get to the pat were it said delete and reboot. And just reboot. That will delete old passwords an delete everything and bring it back to factory default

If you are talking about the BIOS settings or password, then you will have to dissasemble the laptop and take out the BIOS battery (a coin battery, not the laptop's battery itself). Then you'll have to replace it after a few minutes then reassemble the laptop. That should restore it to factory settings.
Also, if it asks for any password at boot time (not windows login screen) the default should be "toshiba".

Are you referring to a Windows password or a Power-On password?

If you mean reformat that is possible. Just make sure you back up your drivers. You should also have a Windows operating system CD.
YOu can also perform system restore which will restore your computer to an earlier date.
System restore options is found under accessories and then system tools.

On some models of TOSHIBA laptops you can access the system restore partition by tapping on the 'zero' (0) during boot.

This will erase EVERYTHING on your drive and reset it to a "out of the box" state. So be sure to back up anything you want to keep before doing a system restore.
