Unfortunately, it has a BIOS password. Toshiba would not tell me how to
reset it unless I took it to "an authorized service center" so I found on
the net how: make a specific parallel port dongle with some pins soldered
together and it will bypass the BIOS check so that you can reset it.
Only one problem: the unit does not have a parallel port. That is, unless
you have a dock.
I do not have a dock, but purchased one off Yahoo auctions. It will arrive
soon !
Is there another way to reset the password, except the dongle or recovery
floppy ?
