• Satellite Pro A100 request BIOS password which was never put

  Hiya

  Have had my Satellite Pro A100 for almost 2 years and that all this time have never even heard of a password system, but all of a sudden, I turned on the laptop this morning and it does not load. I tried pressing F12 (can't remember why, it seemed the thing to do to read the instructions at the bottom of the screen), but nothing happened so I just turned off the power. Put on again, he asked the system password. (A black screen with a blue box, with the old text base BACK type fonts).

  I have no idea what it could be, I tried the word system and tried just pressing on enter without text in there but it says incorrect password. I removed the battery and left 10 hours but put it back in the machine there is no difference, it will not always go through this screen.

  I am the only user on this machine, have no idea what caused it. I am aware of security, have installed on complete McAfee AV and did not have anything odd happen at all. Didn't last changes made to the configuration, no new software etc. so I have no idea what prompted it.

  Can anyone help please?

  Thanks in advance

  This password seems to be a BIOS password, but I have no idea why this password is displayed if you have never defined it.
  Unfortunately, there is not a lot to see the BIOS password can be removed without the help of an ASP.

  Then, contact the service provider allowed in your country and request removal of the password.

  I also recommend updating the BIOS after the technician removed the password.

  Do you know how to find the ASP closest?

• Satellite A100-090 request BIOS password I never set

  Hi all

  I bought 1 year there is a Satellite A100-090 which I was very happy off until now.
  All of a sudden, when I try to start it, I wonder a BIOS password that I never put, not BIOS nor Windows.

  No one could access the PC, because he's locked all the time and there is no one living with me.

  Details: previously, when I started it I had a blue bar + "press DELETE to access the settings, F12 to start... '. ' etc, it's gone.
  I tried TOSHIBA and everything that came to my mind, has not worked.

  Please help me! :-(

  Looks like it is a very common problem :(

• Satellite U205-S5002: cannot retrieve the Express Media Player after upgrading the HARD drive

  So I bought just a new Toshiba Satellite U205-S5002 I love it. One of the great features that interest me was the Express Media Player feature.

  My first step was to upgrade the hard disk and 160 GB and 2 GB ram.
  I placed the disk and ram in my old laptop and sold it.

  Before that I did, I made a copy ghosts and ghost of the hard drive to the new drive. Well come to find out...

  Toshiba is not provided with this software preinstalled, so I followed the instructions to burn my recovery disk Express Media Player and the boot on the new disk.
  So this is where the saga begins...

  After 15-20 seconds, I get a soothing blue screen (NOT of blue BSOD you mind) who says:

  /!\
  An error occurred during the recovery of "Express Media Player".
  -------------------------------------------------------
  Please pick up the image again from the beginning.
  Press any key to exit.

  It is typed exactly as it is on the screen. So, I see some other forums saying: you must have the free space of the disk so I resize the partition that allows 200 MB of space. Always the same... then try 2 GB even... then the 50 GB, same problem...

  OK, so obviously not a question of space. I read while I might need to erase the drive... so I delete the partition, this same error... then I run the recovery disk and tell him to wipe the drive, wait 1 1/2 hour, it ends. No dice! So I decide... ok... Well lets try another disk... I have restored my ghost image... and burned the image again... same question... so I decide to the recovery disk and I'll try to reinstall windows in the factory and make a record...

  Well, it does not work as well as you think... the image is incomplete... windows works fine... but the c:\Toshiba\ExpressMediaPlayer folder is empty!

  I'm happy that I have ghosts my original directory. But I decide allows to Express Media Player a shot more now that I have restored to factory... always the same error... I then decide a trial more... I'll erase drive 1.5 hours, I'll restore from toshiba dvd provided but leaving plenty of space at the end 2 GB (I have a lot about people who tell you to base just around 200 MB)

  5 hours later... moment of truth... Well Yes you guessed it... I don't know anything else to try... I have a bad image?
  You need one that I can download what has worked for them for sure? Or have - I have completely found myself by replacing the HDD with after market and which is originally a kind of compatibility issue?

  Thank you in advance.

  Hello

  It s a great story!
  I put t know how to start so maybe first some info on the Express media player.

  As you said, and has already proposed the Express media player has been preinstalled on the second partition.
  If you want to install this media Express on the HARD disk drive, 150-200 MB of free space must be available. This free space must be on the end of the HARD drive and there must be unallocated.
  To get these free space on the HARD disk, 3 third-party products should be used as for example the Partitions Magic 8!

  I'm not going to write a story how to recover the Express media player because Toshiba has already created useful documents, which described complete installation!
  I found these documents in the knowledge base of computer Toshiba:

• Satellite A215 boots to BIOS password screen.

  I have a Satellite A215-7425 with a problem, I thought I'd pass along the forum. Thank God the three Toshiba laptops that we use, it's the only one who has this problem, so far.

  Spontaneously, this laptop starts with the screen of the BIOS at startup password. The problem is, there is no solution for this problem before returning the computer to a Service Center Toshiba where the password can be reset or replaced a security chip or such nonsense. Toshiba technical support can help you to short to send you a UPS box to return the computer in. Technical support Toshiba doesn't have a password that they can give you, or they do not know what causes this problem, but "Toshiba working on it." A search for this problem on Google translates into various web sites that list the Toshiba BIOS passwords, which none has solved my problem.

  Now for my question, that Toshiba could not answer, why, in heaven's name would be a laptop or any computer for that matter, be set up in this way? What is a BIOS password, which, with the lack of effectivly, the computer makes them unusable, has to do with security? It's stupid!

  Oh and another thing, Toshiba is not the only company that does this, Gateway, HP and Dell do not provide a password of BIOS for repair, or their Support technicians technical people.

  So if your Toshiba start screen of the BIOS password, and that your Toshiba just happens to contain information essential for peace in the world, you're out of luck until it can be delivered being repaired and delivered back to you.

  Desmond, a very dissatisfied customer of Toshiba.

  I m the ASP will remove the BISO password and will solve this problem.

• Equium L10-300: how to remove BIOS password which was never put

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba laptop Equium L10-300 which has just begun to ask a market BIOS password, which is strange, because you never have the value. I read in these forums and have found that the other models had the same problem.

  Now first of all, I was wondering if there is anyway to fix this without sending it away and if not then who can I send it to and the repair will be free?
  Thank you

  Hello

  I didn t notice such BIOS password on my laptop problem.
  However, if the BIOS has been set and that you can not connect, then you will need to contact the ASP in your country for the removal of the password! Without the help of ASP, you will not be able to use the laptop.

  But I can't say much about the cost. I think it could be done for free. Just call the guy and explain your situation.

  Good bye

  Nothing worked, and many drivers do not install correctly.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated and I thank you in advance.

  Hello

  In my opinion, you tried to install a driver of his evil.
  First of all, you should check to see if the device doesn t Manager contains any yellow exclamation and the unknown devices.
  If there is an unknown device on a yellow exclamation and then a sound card driver may not be installed correctly.

  The machine seems to be designed for the American market and you must use the Toshiba page for the driver download.

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite P850/040 and after the BIOS update to the new version 1.50 I checked that a BIOS password has been set up, if I can start the operating system.

  It's amazing. I am very disappointed with Toshiba.

  How can I remove this password? Perhaps with no matter what JCMOS rider?

  Thanks in advance.

  You shouldn't be disappointed. I know it's stupid situation but make a call, explain the situation and the guy will help you.

  Hello

  Are you sure that you have set the BIOS password?
  If you set the BIOS password then the laptop would request the password before it would start in Windows Vista.

  I think that set you the password of the user or supervisor password!

  In Toshiba Assist-> Secure you could erase that two passwords too.
  Please check this!
