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.

    Use that code to go into the BIOS.
    Disable all passwords that are enabled.
    If asked for the CURRENT password use that code.
    If asked for NEW password just hit enter.
    If asked to VERIFY password just hit enter.
    Save and exit.

  • Satellite A130 -ST1311 PSRD6U - How to delete BIOS password

    Toshiba Satellite A130 -ST1311 PSRD6U-01500JB
    English with translator:
    When enabling: Enter Password [ ]
    I did not put password on bios.
    My computer has a proprietary information. Now I must send my laptop in service centre?
    If problem with Flash BIOS, must be a decision.
    I have got inconvenience!
    I have done wrong buying?

    You should not be so skeptic about service work. Go to the service. They can remove HDD in front of you and take notebook in service without any data.
    For password removing HDD must not be inside.
    Just say them what you want and I believe there will not be any problem. ;)
    Just be cool. The customer is the king! Isnt it?

    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.

  • Set BIOS Password during SCCM 2012 Task Sequence

    Hi,
    I search a solution for this problem.
    I want to set a BIOS password during my unattended installation in the SCCM Task Sequence.
    I know the Lenovo BIOS instructions:
    http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles_pdf/script.zip
    http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/thinkcentre_pdf/crdeploy_en.pdf
    With this you can change the BIOS settings during installation and you can change a BIOS password.
    But not set a new one, if they do not have a password, on a new laptop!!?
    I would not necessarily do it manually on +200 new laptops how can I solve this?
    e.g. HP have a simple solution with the BIOSUtilityTool
    thanks
    best regards

    We believe allowing a scripted method of setting a BIOS password without a root of trust is a security vulnerability.  For that reason we only allow changing a BIOS password via scripted means and the current password has to be provided.  We do provide a service in manufacturing for setting the initial password to a known value which you could then use in a script to change to a more secure value.

    Yesterday I changed my email password on my home computer.  Today, I can't get any new emails on my Samsung Galaxy 4; I deleted the email account entirely and tried to set it up again as a new account, using the new password, but it keeps giving me an error message that reads: Cannot safely connect to server.  The new password is working on my home computer.  I even tried the old password; it just gave me the same error message.

    I'm sorry you're having issues with your e-mail account on your phone Rusty1112. Let's figure out what's going on. First, please try deleting account/information again and then restart phone. When phone is back on, try adding e-mail account again, and be sure you're entering exactly as you set up, meaning its case-sensitive. If you're still getting same error, please let us know and let us know what e-mail account it is, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, etc.

  • I changed my AppleID/Password and now am locked out of iCloud. iCloud says maximum number of free accounts have been activated. tried Settings, Mail etc but iCloud does not appear. I was going to delete it and start again.

    Had to change Apple ID/Password recently now cannot access iCloud. In settings when tapping iC, log in screen appears with old ID and request for (old) password.
    In Settings  Mail, Contacts etc iCloud does not appear. I was going to delete account.
    Trying new ID/Password message appears "maximum no. of free accounts have been activated".
    Using old ID/Password message apperas "you can,t sign in because account was disabled for security reasons ......reset password at iforgot.apple.com which i did.
    Can anybody help please??

    Hi,
    I tried to log in to iCloud but a message appears telling me I "can't sign in because my account was disabled for security reasons....reset password at iforgot.apple.com". I don't know why this happened.
    I reset both my Apple ID and password.
    When I tap Settings iCloud is listed on the left side between General and Mail, Contacts etc.
    Tapping iCloud brings up a log in screen for iCloud which shows my old Apple ID and requests the password. If I put the password in I get the message as above.
    If I use the new Apple ID/Password I get the message "the maximum number of free accounts have been activated....
    In settings there is no option to "Delete Account"
    Any suggestions??

  • Someone has been able to get into my Game Center account and has hacked me, I've changed my password and everything but he still finds away to get into my account, he changes my bio and stuff and I don't know what to do, I need desperate help :(

    I've been hacked and I changed my password but he still finds away to get into my Game Center and change my bio. I need serious help

    Have you given your information to anyone?   Family, friend?
    Did you have another device with Game Center on it?   Did you give a new owner of a device any passwords?
    Do you share apple account with a family member?
    Do you have a rescue email set up in your Apple account, with security questions? 
    I suggest you set up a new email account, write everything down and keep it in a safe place.
    New email account and password. Not so easy that it can be hacked.
    In your iTunes account on the computer. Login and change security questions, password and rescue email.
    Again, make sure your password is not easy to guess.   Same with security questions.
    Write it all down and keep it somewhere safe.
    I recommend a password keeper called Enpass.   You can store 10 cards with user names, passwords, notes and account numbers in the free version.
    Then you only have to remember one complicated password to open Enpass and retrieve your information.
    If all else fails, contact apple support.

  • How to delete a BIOS password (Satellite A30) - please help

    Hello. In the company I work there was a Toshiba Satellite A30 that had a BIOS password set.
    I was asked to remove the password and, inside the BIOS, I was able to clear the password (at least that is what I thought at first):
    BIOS asked for the current password and I typed it, then asked for a new password and I just pressed the ENTER key, and when I was asked to retype the new password I pressed the ENTER key again.
    After that, I saw that BIOS showed "PASSWORD (clear)" and I saved the changes and exit.
    To my surprise, I was asked for a password again, I just pressed the ENTER key and it showed an "INCORRECT PASSWORD" message, and the same message when I type the old password!!!
    I don't know if there was a Toshiba password when the computer was bought, but the manual that I downloaded from here does not mention that.
    Is there a way to fix this? I can't understand what may have happened!
    VERY MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE and thanks again for reading.
    [Edited by: admin on 06-Aug-05 08:27]

    Hello
    If the right password is not known to you there is no way to remove them. It can be removed only by Authorized service partner. Please contact them and they will do it for you. I assume that this can not be expensive.
