hahahahh


thats strange

but i have a customer, its not mine

Ask the person HE stole it from? Seriously, Tosibha laptop password resets usually require the intervention of Toshiba tech support who require proof of ownership.

Have a look on eBay for the Toshiba Password Remover.

can anyone tell me how to remove password?????

you must find the hidden jumper on the mobo. most of the time it is located under or near the ram.

i'll post later the exact location.

I have a friend with a Toshiba Satelite I got them a couple of years ago. They let their 8 year old son use it and when he got it back it was asking for a password. I can't see how an 8 year old could of set a BIOS password as you have to press escape and then move to the password bit.

Anyway, I got aa dongle thing that plugs into the parallel port and resets it off ebay, works a treat.

sorry to dig up an old thread but does anyone have that attachment pic again?

It was certain that it was from an m9 and not some earlier model?

damn last time that I let the nephew use the lappy again.

thanks

vontreigo: thats a dead link

atyourservice 's post is correct but the printer port bypass only works with older laptops from the fact finding ive done.
and from looking at my laptop - its not exactly clear which pins to short out on the M9

 

[AtYourService]

what about the shorting method
or the challenge /response
