Satellite 2210 - Boot in the BIOS password

Toshiba Satellite Dyna
Model name: Satellite 2210 C50/4 8
Model No.: PS221N - S 691, 60

This is the right forum for the laptop above?

It is an OLD Win98 laptop. A friend asked if I could "fix".

PROB: Is there a Boot password in the BIOS. I can't get into the BIOS without the password.
I tried each key entry in the BIOS that I know, but can't yet get into the BIOS.

I get a msg that says press F2 for a Boot Menu, but apparently this works only once the password is entered.

Is there a way to RESET the BIOS password?
On a desktop computer, this would be by removing the CMOS batt. for 15 seconds.
Relocation of the batt. & restart.
But, being a laptop, I'm not familiar with how to access the CMOS batt.

The owner of the laptop would like me to do a "gaming laptop" for his young children.

ANY help anyone can offer will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Sincerely,
MLStrand56

BIOS password cannot be removed as on desktop PC. AFAIK the RTC battery is soldered to the majority of motherboards so don t think that's an option.
The BIOS password can be removed by Toshiba service provider agents

But you don't need t to access the BIOS to change the boot order.
You can press F12 when starting the laptop and usually the start menu should appear where you could choose the boot device

  • Satellite A210 how to reset the BIOS password unknown?

    Hey guys

    I have a BIOS password on my Toshiba Satellite A210, I have no idea what it can be. One day, when I turned on my laptop, it came with a black screen with a blue rectangle in the Middle says "Enter password". I tried to enter my Windows login password, but it did not work.

    After 3 times to try the laptop password puts himself off the coast. No member of my house using my pc, and even if they did, they don't know how to do something like that anyway. Also, I have seen on other forums that it occurred to people for no reason.

    Another thing, I would like to try one of the programs of resetting the BIOS as KeyDisk or CmosPWD but if I put a CD, DVD, Flash drive, etc, in my pc and press F12 for the boot menu, nothing happens so I can't do that!

    Please help, I can't use my PC and I am currently on my sisters pc!

  • L50D-B - reset of the Bios password satellite

    Model: Satellite L50D-B-17J
    Serial number: YE031145C

    So, one of my cousins has managed to put a BIOS password on his cell phone and then forgot the password. Now, I was invited to see if I can fix it.

    First of all: this notebook, while relatively new, is essentially fixed or trash, she already has a new. I already opened it upward, so the warranty has technically been canceled already. All this means it does not matter too much if he breaks in the process of fixing. They say that they have contacted support and not really gotten an idea clear of what to actually do, and I'd rather not have to worry about support (the Support System site is not even working for me right now).

    Long story short:
    Is it possible to reset the BIOS password on this model? I understand that it is possible on many laptops to do by removing the CMOS battery. Now, this model does not have a (I opened it and found no one). Instead, I understand that the newer models may have a circuit that can be shorted to possibly reset the BIOS? Is this correct, and if so, what is it?

    Once more, the laptop is practically acquired anyway, so if possible, I'd take the chance to do it myself, if it's at all possible.

    Well, the circuits in question would be JCMOS1 riders normally located under the RAM. Bridge them while the power is turned off the first. If it does not then on the screen by removing the battery and drive, press and hold power for 10-15 seconds, then hold down Fn + ESC, holding down it to the bottom of the plug in the power lead and switch on the device. When the fan starts release Fn + ESC. If you see a post screen then bridge JCMOS1 jumper then and that should reset the BIOS. Unplug the unit and hold down the power button for 1 minute and then plug it back again. It should start up with asking to specify a password. If you could not to post, then refer to the manual to see what it flashes the procedure. The buttons used for flashing procedure will be the same to make this post. Only fill the JCMOS1 jumper while the machine is running if you see the post screen, no other time. An easy way to bridge them would be to use a paperclip and bend it on and use the ends of it.

  • Satellite M - How to remove the BIOS password?

    Hello.

    I forgot my BIOS password. I tried to do everything to introduce some default passwords like "toshiba" "phoenix" pressing the left SHIFT key while booting to disassemble my laptop and find my BIOS battery to remove it.

    The problem is that my battery is stuck on my motherboard and I don't know what to do. I heard that there should be a few riders near the battery that could help me but I cannont find them.

    I'm desperate... What can I do?
    Please help me
    Thank you.

    Default password doesn't exist and there is no magic default password that can remove existing. Remove the BIOS battery will not help at all. It will not work on laptops, then forget.

    BIOS password can be removed in ASP only if the closest contact with ASP and they will help you.
    Theory with rider is also not correct because the BIOS removal procedure is not the same for each laptop model.

    Sorry, but ASP is your only way to remove the BIOS password.
