I am looking for a simple way to recover my bios password for my toshiba laptop

Password on Hard Drive: you bricked the computer.
Password on Bios: you need to remove the battery (motherboard battery) for 30 seconds and place it again.
Password of Windows: You need to get a software tool designed to recover or reset/delete your Windows password

try this site,or remove your cmos battery for a couple of mins,,then put it back,it might work.

I copied this info from a website since it needs a very particular solution. The only time I had to use it, it worked.
Go to setup (if it lets you) and check the BIOS brand and version.
(If you cant do anything due to the password, then you need some hardware to do that). I hope this helps

For Award BIOS, this checksum is stored at F000:EC60.
Resetting the BIOS Password using Software Every system must store the BIOS password information somewhere. If you are able to access the machine after it has been booted successfully, you may be able to view the BIOS password. You must know the memory address where the BIOS password is stored, and the format in which the BIOS password is stored. Or, you must have a program that knows these things.
You can write your own program to read the BIOS password from the CMOS memory on a PC by writing the address of the byte of CMOS memory that you wish to read in port 0x370, and then reading the contents of port 0x371.
!BIOS will recover the BIOS password for most common BIOS versions, including IBM, American Megatrends Inc, Award and Phoenix.

Sure are you looking for the bios password or the OS password?
If your looking for the OS password you can use an program that is advailble on line to recover the password, this will cost you money to get.
I would say to buy the OS cd and reload the system..

there are many bios passwords but most except 1 can be bypassed by a simple work around:

open your laptop exposing the mother board, look for a the CMOS/BIOS battery (the one in the picture). if you have more than one, remove both, then let it sit without the battery for at least 3 hours. (best if you do this overnight because results may vary depending on the model of your mobo)

after that, put the battery back in, put the laptop back together, and you are good to go.

good luck, hope you get this one running.
