How To Remove or Clear bios password?

This information is intended for experienced users. It is not intended for basic users, hackers, or computer thieves. Please do not try any of following procedures if you are not familiar with computer hardware. I'll not be responsible for the use or misuse of this information, including personal injury, loss of data or hardware damage. So use it at your own risk.A. By Using the Motherboard Jumper:In most motherboards CMOS battery is soldered, which makes it difficult to remove the battery. In this case we use another method.Almost all motherboards contain a jumper that can clear all CMOS settings along with the BIOS password. The location of this jumper varies depending upon the motherboard brand. You should read your motherboard manual to check its location. If you don't have the manual then look for the jumpers near the CMOS battery. Most of the manufacturer label the jumper as CLR, CLEAR, CLEAR CMOS, etc.When you find the jumper, look carefully. There will be 3 pins and the jumper will be joining the center pin to either left or right pin. What you need to do, is remove the jumper and join the center pin to the opposite pin. e.g. if the jumper joins center pin to left pin, then remove it and join center pin to right pin. Now wait for a few seconds and then again remove the jumper and join the center pin to left pin.Make sure to turn the PC off before opening the cabinet and resetting the jumper. B. By Using Software:
I have found that BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool is the most effective.:
BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool is a program that works instantly to remove any lost or forgotten BIOS/CMOS password. Simply boot your PC to DOS and execute the program, and get access to forgotten BIOS/CMOS passwords in just secondsBIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool Service: http://www.biospasswordrecovery.com/

Some require you do this 3x and it gives a lockout code that you can tell us and we can get a reset code to remove the bios password. If 3x doesn't work you might have to contact a MODerator on here and ask them if there is some other steps to try.

CLEAR BIOS PASSWORD AND POWER-ON PASSWORD

How do I remove my bios password and power-on password on my notebook? Hope that you'll help me with this. Thanks!

Enter BIOS by tapping F10 immediately after powering on to enter BIOS. You may need to tap Esc key first, then F10 at the menu.Once into BIOS under Security disable all passwords by entering your current password and leave the new password blank. Save & Exit

After restart computer again asked me to provide password, but the old password and blank password wasn't correct. And now I can't enter BIOS and start computer.
Any suggestions what was happened and what can I do right now?

Thank you.

Hi
Unfortunately nobody here can help you with this. BIOS password is very important security feature and it cannot be solved on some public forums.
This can be solved with authorized service only.
Response code can be given by Toshiba only and they don't give it to anyone. Only authorized service provider can get it after check if notebook is not stolen.
Contact nearest Toshiba service provider and they can help you wth this.
Bye and good luck.

Portege P3440 asking for a BIOS password

I have a Portege P3440 which I haven't used for about 8 months. When I turn it on now it comes up with screen asking for a password, and unfortunately I don't remember the password.
It seems like a net bios password but I am not sure. It has Win NT installed. Please help as it is getting rather urgent.

It is very bad situation Shaana. I hope you will be able to enter preinstalled OS trying different words as possible password. Other way you must visit service. They can remove the BIOS password but it will cost a little bit.

Portege Z830 - Changing/deleting Bios password

When I started up my new Portege Z830, I was given the option during set up, of putting in a bios password.
I did so, but am now regretting it, as I have to put in two passwords, the bios and windows, before can start doing anything. As I don't need the bios one, how do I get into the system to change or delete it, now that I don't have access to the set up screens?
Thanks

You can delete it in BIOS options directly or using Toshiba tool in Windows Supervisor password utility.
I recommend you to perform complete shutdown and then after notebook restart enter BIOS settings and delete it there.

Portege M300 BIOS password removal

Dear,
We from UsedPC a company in Holland thats sell second handed Notebooks en Computers just bought 4 of Toshiba Portege M300
We only have one problem on all of the machines, They are locked with an start up password ( bios password ) so we cant install them
Only we need the responses codes that we dont know.
Can somebody help us out please?
Greets,
UsedPC

BIOS password ist most sensible security feature and you cannot expect help in public forum where everyone should find out how it works.
Then every stolen Portege M300 can be unlocked.
What I can say is that unlocking method is pretty complicated and just authorized service can help you with this. Even they don't have these codes. Just Toshiba can send them codes following specific procedure.
So forget it. Go to service, show evidence that notebooks are not stolen and they will help you with this. Of course it will not be for free.
