    Does anyone know how to remove the bios password on a Toshiba Satellite A10 or A15?
    The laptop starts with a password prompt, has no LPT printer port and no disk drive.

    Thanks,

    razik, did you check the service manual for this notebook?
    did you check for this pads on such notebook?
    there are no such pads under mini-pci slot or under memory slots.
    so, why do you give advice, when you don't know is it work?
