To clear the CMOS, you must remove the battery from your laptop and
leave it out for at least 30 minutes to an hour. The way to remove the
battery from your Toshiba will largely depend on the model. A common way
to remove the battery--particularly with newer models--is to release
the battery lock on the bottom of the laptop, while sliding the
accompanying tab over to the side. This will pop the battery out from
its tray so that you can then pull it out all of the way out.
Before you remove the battery, turn off the laptop and remove the AC
adapter. Otherwise, you could end up harming yourself or the laptop
components. You must also ground yourself to prevent damaging the laptop
with static electricity.
After about a half an hour or more, return the battery back to its tray and lock it into place. Power on the laptop. The computer, ideally, should no longer ask you for a BIOS password.
It's important to keep in mind that resetting the CMOS means that all
of your BIOS settings will be reset to factory default. Also, sometimes
you may need to leave out the battery for much longer than an hour to
reset the password.

The Password can be removed via the printer port
What you need is a password removal tool, It removes the Bios and start-up passwords.
It costs about £5.00. Easy to build but it costs more to put the kit together.
I think you were quite hard on the assistance.

If you know the current password, use it to enter BIOS SETUP.
Then, type a "blank" ("space-bar") as the "new" password.
If you don't know the current password, you're stuck;
this is a "security" feature to prevent a stolen laptop from being used by the thief.

This is the ONLY other way, save paying Toshiba and filling in proof of ownership forms.
The BIOS password is removed by the BIOS configuration, you need the BIOS password to get into the BIOS configuration.But if you do not have the BIOS password then you need to construct this dongle device.
