Satellite C855 - 12K - BIOS password incorrect supervisor

Hello

I own a Toshiba Satellite C855 - 12K and there is a problem with the BIOS supervisor password. Once I put the password, I was unable to access BIOS because it says that the password is incorrect.
I am positively sure that the password im putting in is that I put in the BIOS before because I have used the same password to lock my HDD to 100%.

Somewhere online I read that this BIOS version has a bug that makes it unable to remember the password.
Is there any solution to this or I have to send my laptop for Toshiba?
Operating system is windows 7 Professional-

Unfortunately there is no magic solution. I can't comment on speculation on bug BIOS but if there is a problem with the service provider Toshiba BIOS must be informed about this.

I recommend you contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and ask for help. They can remove your password.

This password protection is very serious characteristic safety and public forum is not the best place to write about the ways how it can be removed.

  • I can reflash BIOS on Satellite C855 - 12K PSKCEE to the same version?

    I want to * Toshiba BIOS REFLASH * in * THE SAME * VERSION. In other words, I want to force utility of flashing to install the same version of BIOS despite it's already isntalled (instead of just show 'the most recent version isntalled laready' popup and close the application after this popup).

    Is this possible? Is there a way to trick the flashing utility to reinstall the BIOS to same version? Or to force the old version install?

    No work around is appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    I am still concerned why the new driver does not work?

  • Satellite Pro L10: BIOS passwords again

    Hello!

    Tonight one of my friends brought me his Satellite Pro L10 and asked me to remove the user password, cose she dislikes grasp every time... OK, it's very simple! -I said. I went to the BIOS with the same password, found the supervisor password option and turn off the power. I could not enter the user password option and left him, thinking I'll fix this later... Well...

    Can you imagine how I was surprised when the system says - password invalid! More... I tried to go back to the BIOS, but system asked me a password... but I deleted "Supervisor password" well, I typed the old one and it does not again!

    Ok. Of course, later, I found the manual for this Satellite Pro L10, I know that it might be preferable to use the Toshiba Console and Toshiba HWSetup could be.

    Tell me, please, supervisor password had priority, and now she has to remember his user password?
    Or there is something else?

    Thank you!

    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

  • Satellite L40 - 12K - BIOS update failure

    Hi people,

    It is the second Toshiba laptop, I've managed to screw up. I don't know why, but it seems that Toshiba is especially prone to spectacular failure of BIOS.

    This laptop (Satellite L40 - 12K, short model PSL40E) has a bios made by FRIEND and Toshiba has an update on its Web site for windows that uses the tool of WinFlash.exe made by ASUS.

    The tool only works for 32-bit operating systems, and I had installed a 64-bit version of Windows, I could not pass the laptop.

    Then I thought: we will try to update the bios from MS-DOS, using a bootable flash drive!

    I went to the ASUS ftp site and downloaded the latest AFUDOS (2.41). This is a special version of the afudos FRIEND tool, specially designed for ASUS.

    I ran the tool under MS-DOS, and it will make sure the BIOS automatically confirmed that the binary file was compatible with the laptop model and automatically starts the process of flashing.

    But it crash in the phase of "flash erase". He was stuck there for HOURS, so I turned off the computer and tried to turn it back on.

    Not at all, the laptop won't turn. It does not even ANY SOUND. NO LIGHTS, NO NOISE, NO FAN, NOTHING.

    ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY DEAD.

    So, there you have it. I have flashed dozens of computers (servers, laptops, workstations, etc.) in my life, and I've only had TWO failures.

    TWO of them were with Toshiba laptops. Geez, Toshiba is really the King of the failures of BIOS flashing!

    Hello

    I would never try update the Toshiba BIOS with a BIOS from other support pages for computer laptop manufacturer
    What to say; I found one from Toshiba victory of the BIOS and traditional BIOS Toshiba U.S. driver page:

    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com

    Maybe you could try to Flash the BIOS using this version of BIOS
    If this is not possible, then only a service provider authorized Toshiba would be able to help you.

    By the way: I've had three different Toshiba notebooks: A210, U400, and now Tecra A11.
    The BIOS update has worked perfect for all series...

  • How to remove the Satellite Pro 4600 BIOS password?

    A friend of mine recently bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 (PS460E-03371-EN). Unfortuately the password of the BIOS was set before the purchase and would like to know how to reset it.
    The machine will not start now.
    Any help as to the location of the BIOS battery or work around this problem will be appreciated.

    Hello

    To remove the BIOS battery will not help. BIOS by removing on laptops is more complicated than on desktop computers. BIOS by removing the procedure depends on the laptop model and it is not the same on all models of laptops.

    A lot of people get the laptop with password and to provide an accurate description how do this in the public forum is not good idea.
    Have you tried to contact the person who sold this laptop and ask BIOS password?
