• Satellite A100 BIOS password request

  I did a disk check on my Satellite A100, but after the control of what my system is in place with the message "Password".
  There is no password set for the system.
  What should I do?

  Pleas help.

  I agree with Akuma, but I don t understand why Notepad starts with a password prompt.

  What did you do when you said I did a disk check? Have you done a Windows checkdisk?

  However, an ASP (authorized service provider) can remove the password. You can search on the Toshiba site to find an ASP.

• Satellite A100 - BIOS password not accepted after computer take part

  (Sorry if this question has been asked before, I searched through topics, but too many subjects was found.)

  I have an old A100 for 3 years with no guarantee. I want to sell it so I took apart to clean dust. Everything for the motherboard. When everything has been cleaned and I reinstalled everything, I turned it on and the password of the BIOS has not been accepted. I know the password and it's OK to 100% and shift lock is not locked on.

  Is it possible that the keyboard flat cable has been installed wrongly, the cable was - a.f.a.i.k - reinstalled right, because there is only one way to insert into the slot on the motherboard. (Sorry for my bad English)

  Or BIOS confused and handed over to zero in some Toshiba service password? Is this possible?

  The caps lock is locking itself led of lights up and can not turn off with the CAPS LOCK key.

  What is the solution?

  > Is it possible that the keyboard flat cable has been installed wrongly,
  Connect the keyboard external usb to check (this is good if you remove the internal keyboard when checking)

  > Or BIOS confused and handed over to zero in some Toshiba service password? Is this possible?
  No, it is impossible that this password has been reset. In any case, I've never heard

• On Satellite Pro A100 BIOS password

  I have the Satellite Pro A100-PSAACE since 06

  On 08 February he made that it self a BIOSpassword and when I went to Toshiba they me charge about $ 100 to reset but it is November again and they reset it without charge.

  They told me to do a BIOS password, so he can't make a password that it self but today I left it open, and as usual he go to Hibernate it self but when I turned on it asks for a password. I entered the password. I know, but it's not accept it!

  I don t know where the problem is.
  Can an authorized here tell me how to fix or what the problem?

  Thnx

  Hello

  > Can someone with authority here tell me how to solve or where is the problem?
  Don t understand what you mean by authorized. Here, you will meet common Toshiba users like me and you, and not just any ASP guy!
  If you need to remove the BIOS password that I recommend you contact the ASP guys one more time and to clarify this issue.
  Perhaps the BIOS should be updated after removing the BIOS password again.

  Good bye

• How to reset the BIOS on Satellite A100-237 password?

  Hi, guys.

  Suddenly, I ended up having a bios password problem without putting a whole. I can´t seem to start my computer A100-237, because he wants a password just after I ve it starts.

  Unfortunately I don't have haven´t had the time to go to the nearest Service partner because it is 400km away. Can someone help me solve the problem (I ve read about KeyDisk, but I need a disk to be able to use it and I simply Dona´t have a).

  Maybe I can use a kind of bootable CD to reset the password or something else?

  Thank´s in advance for your help!

  No, no, no you can not make yourself the BIOS password is not easy to remove on the desktop PC by removing the RTC battery.
  Something like that is not possible on the Toshiba laptop and can damage the Board.

  The only way to remove the BIOS password is in contact with the ASP in your country.
  I think that it of a security option because before you remove the BIOS password, you have to show the invoice or delivery note.

• Satellite A100 BIOS update - BAD CHECKSUM

  I've just updated my BIOS to version 6.0 that TOSHIBA said > 26/11/07 "this Bios update adds functionality to your system: Satellite A100 Toshiba 6, 00 - WIN (PSAAN).»

  My original BIOS was 5.9
  My computer works fine A100-33 but when my computer restarts, showed it to the BLACK screen.

  I noticed that it displays BAD CHECKSUM and suugested I select default BIOS but I * ignored this advice * that wanted this new Version of the BIOS.

  What means BAD CHECKSUM and what effects will have on my computer peformance please if any?

  Under the system information that is displayed for my BIOS Version/Date Phoenix Technologies LTD 6.00, 07/12/2007

  Name of the Microsoft OS? ® Windows Vista Home Basic

  Hello

  Don t worry if the message "bad checksum" will appear only once.

  'Bad checksum' means that the BIOS has been changed, rewritten or settings have been restored by default. Thus, whenever you save your bios settings, bios made a "checksum" to check the next time you start the settings were stored and all goes well. If something is wrong or has been changed, then the checksum stored since the last save a Don t match real new generated checksum.

  So if you make an update of the bios, all your settings will be modified logic - you get an error "Bad Checksum".

  Another reason for such "Bad Checksum" is an empty BIOS stack or a malfunction, so BIOS cannot keep it s settings and you will get every time you start the computer a message "Bad Checksum".

• Satellite A30: BIOS password persists after removing

  Hi all

  I am using a Satellite A30, I set this password on the Bios "youandme" so after I decided to remove this password, I delete it properly, but after restard the laptop, the bios ask for the password, what can I do? Thank you for your support.
  Ometa

  Hello

  Why are you sure have you remove the BIOS password successfully 100%?
  Usually you can not remove the BIOS password without knowing the old.
  It s very strange what you describe, because after the BIOS password turn off the laptop should work properly without asking the password.

  Well, the fact is that only the Toshiba service partner can remove the BIOS password if someone forgot the own password.

  Unfortunately, I put t see any other possibility.

• Equium A100-147 - password appears as soon as Toshiba screen appears

  Hello

  My husband and I are two retreats with very little knowledge of computers, and we received a Toshiber Equium A100-147 of a friends wife after the death of her husband.

  When turn it on as soon as the Toshiba screen appears it want an entered password and my question is what is the password.
  I looked through all the documents related to our friends for the computer and there is nothing there.

  Elaine

  Hello

  I think you're talking about the BIOS password.
  This password can be set or removed in the BIOS and its type of protection.
  Without knowing this password you will not be able to boot Windows system

  Also it is not possible to remove this password if you know n t s the old password.
  Only the technician of the ASP (authorized service provider) would be able to bypass and remove this password

  So I see only one solution; local ASP contact and ask for help.

  Welcome & good luck

• Satellite R630 Bios password suddenly failing!

  I have a Satellite R630 since October 2010 and already I had to reinstall Windows 7 due to fun with the OS and various issues, which some will find to bloat ware as Toshiba have packed and some who are with the OS (what a surprise).
  But somethings are to do with the laptop, a space key, which does not always work (esp on the right side) is the least of my problems today.

  With no apparent guest today he asked a supervisor bios password.
  The password that I set, failed. Its reboot then cancelled by asking me the password for the user. But it has not yet.
  I tried all bios passwords I can think, I even plugged in to an external keyboard.
  Nothing, I'm locked out.

  Worse still, when I search on the internet I find that it is not such a rare "feature" of the Bios Toshiba. Is this a case that I need to send it in, or you can access the battery on this model?
  Everyone had it / found a solution?

  Hey,.

  I searched a bit here in the forum and I couldn't t found these similar topics so it doesn t seem to
  be a common problem.

  Fact is if you forgot the password you can t remove yourself. This is possible only from an authorized service provider. So in my opinion, you must contact the guys to get rid of the password.
  I m guys are going to help you :)

  Thank you or any medium

  Hello

  Enter the BIOS (by pressing F2 at startup) and try to check in the Bios if compatible keyboard, legacy usb support (something like that) is enabled. It should help.
  Otherwise, playing with the up/downgrade Bios (especially, demote) instead of keyboard problem, can cause the crash of the complete system with white screen.
