I have an old L355. As luck would have it, it has the same jumper in the same place. It is even labeled B500 just like yours. Now the only thing I did that was different was that it did not work unless I left the ram chip inside, while shorting the jumper and powering on. In this way it worked for me. You are my savior man! Thank you for a most excellent and to the point video. You saved me a very expensive repair shop bill !! Thank you Thank you !!!
Worked great!! The only item/point that needs to be reiterated is "REMOVE THE JUMPER WHEN THE TOSHIBA LOGO DISAPPEARS".
Thanks Again!!
I tried this several times with a flat head screwdriver and paper clip. Fresh cut cat 5 did the trick so your jumper needs to be super clean or for the soldering types you might even try cleaning the contacts with flux if they are badly corroded. Thanks for posting this video!
applause for people like you who share their knowledge with others, thanks
I don't leave comments on these issues unless they work. This one, actually works!
Thanks fella!
I have been trying to get past a bios password on a relatives toshiba L655d-s5156rd. Thanks to Indemmand's videos I knew where to look. In my case the Jumper was labelled G2. Thank you for you efforts.
I wanted to say TY for this video it worked on my daughters Toshiba Laptop Satelite L505D-S5983. Took a few times and the Cat5 Cable worked the best tried speaker wire didn't work. You do need one memory stick in on the top. Tried the bottom memory didn't work did the top memory and it worked. Thank You again!!
omg.. thanks to you my laptop is up and running again... I searched for hrs and tried everything known to mankind to get to reset this bios password... the cat 5 wire is the trick.... thank u so much... for this video....
for a A215-4697..the jumper IS J4. You just need a small screwdriver, HD out, BOTH sticks of ram out, hold it on the jumper for like 15 secs. Put the RAM back in...turn it on.
You're done. Nicely done video I might add.
I found the B500 contacts on the laptop motherboards close where the Memory comparment is, I did all you mentioned on the video and my laptop has now the bios password reset , thank you very much. I've found all what you sai very important and usefull
This works I used this process on a Satellite L455-S5975. THANKS MAN YOU SAVED ME AT LEAST $80
DUDE you just saved me a ton of money brother!!!!!!!!! Worked like a freakin charm! My problem was i was using a paper clip and it wouldnt work, i tried the wire from a cat 5 cable and boom it reset. The hard drive was locked though, i just replaced it only cost 40 for a new one from best buy. Thank you so much man, you are a genius!
This is awesome. I could not believe i will get this solution till i came here. God bless you.
Thank you so much!!! I used this on a L355 series. Confirmed: Working!
the points are under the black protective covering in the memory bay, two soldier points separated by a line, I believe they were marked "XXX". I tried this before and didn't work. You must follow his instructions; leave ram in, power on the laptop from the A/C charger with the points shorted. once you see the network boot agent, remove the shunt (wire), power down and reassemble the laptop.
OK) Its really works for my Toshiba Satellite A300 !!! I am successfully reset bios password! Many Thanks for this tutorial! But in A300 you need insert memory module into the innermost socket (at left).
Just wanted to say THANK YOU for posting this video. I had no luck using a Cat5 wire, however, I used a small flat head screwdriver and it worked like a charm on the first try!
After 20 tries I was going to give up since it wasn't working but I left both cards in and it worked on the first try.thanks!!!
@1plou
Step 1:
cut a piece of cat5 cable
step 2:
take out the battery and hard drive from the computer
step 3:
remove the memory and locate the jumper ( FOLLOW THE VIDEO)
Step 4:
put one stick of memory in and place the laptop on the side ( Connect the power cord)
Step 5:
You must have the jjumper hit both a ground location and the B500 or XXX jumper. ( Some people use another person to turn on and off the laptop.
Step 6:
turn on the laptop while holding the jumper in place.
thank you so much. im losing hope with my laptop until i saw your video. it works. my laptop is equium a210. i love you man
Thanx,it worked for my satellite A135 laptop. i had to try it twice before it worked. Many Thanx Again!
You were so right on the try try try again, It worked on the 5th attempt... Great job
amigo estoy muy agradecido por tu video y explicacion fue de gran ayuda la laptop que repare fue una toshiba satellite l305-sp5806r esta misma se encendia pero quedaba la pantalla con el logo de toshiba y de ahi no avanzaba, ya habia desolado la bateria y probado cada una de los dispositivos y nada. con tu explicacion quedo resuelto de nuevo muchas gracias.
my english is bad but, im realy happy for result u r a big guy thnx 4 ur time to make the video.
For the love of god i can not thank you enough for posting this video.
Worked perfectly, a screw driver would not work for me either, once i used a copper wire, perfect. Subscribed.
Thank you soo much! It worked. You just saved me a laptop! For anyone else who has this problem the contacts were slightly corroded so I had to try about 10 times before it worked.
works for the L350-21Q, the pads to short are marked b500 above and XXX below the pads. thanks. It's taken all day trolling the web to find this. the important part is starting up with pads shorted, and with some ram installed.
this works for the later a505 models as well. Thanks alot!!!
@bigtitanfan
Glad to hear that it worked for you., I did forget to mention that you need to put one memory stick on the laptop and turn it on to be able to reset the bios.
Works fine on A215-s7462... big thanks men...
Worked like a charm for an A205-S4707. Thanks. Using single wire from Cat 5 cable worked great. Thanks. Make sure you have at least 1 memory module installed or laptop will not boot! Don't recall if you mentioned that.
thanks very much!!! my toshi was a doorstop 4 at least a year, i love u............
Thanks friend. Great to help out. That password made out all my brain. Your instructions are most illustrative. It working!
Sorry to hear that. You need to keep at it until you get it removed. Never give up.
Thanks!!! I had to leave the memory in or it would never try to boot but once I did that it worked perfect. Thanks again!
Worked on Toshiba Satellite L505D ! Thanks Mate =D
Worked for a Toshiba L350. Thank You
Worked for an A215-s7408, THANK YOU!
Dude you are awesome. It worked perfectly with my Laptop even though it was a different model. Thanks alot
Worked perfectly, even though our model was slightly different. Thanks!
Thanks a bunch dude i fixed my friend's laptop using this tutorial. Before watching this video I thought that i had to remove the keyboard to do the jumping..pheww! lol
This works great, but be sure to follow instuctions on the type of wire exactly. I tried several different wires (believe it or not) and paper clips but cat5 did the trick. Also a slight rub of the jumpers with a light abrasive material was needed, there might have been slight oxidation on my laptop jumpers. Thanks
Worked A treat on a Toshiba L350
Many Thanks For Your Hard Work :)
Awesome! It worked on my L355D!
it took a few tries, but I finally got the jumper in position at the same time the power button was pushed...very tricky unless your a neurosurgeon ;-) my hands are not super steady and im nearsighted...BUT I GOT IT!!!! Thanks!!!!
@indemmand you get the super tutorial of awesomeness award of the week.. thanks for the suggestion... this technique worked perfectly on my a215 with cat-6 copper.. and yes @finster69 you do need at least one memory module installed or else it will not boot.
Hey thank you very much it work perfect but you did skip the part where you put the upper memory card back in the computer to make this work, I have been without my laptop for months thank you!
I was crying jajajaja luck this works keep the good work man
Thank you soo much! It worked......... for anyone else who has this problem the contacts were slightly corroded so I had to try about 10 times before it worked.
Thank you bro u are the Best i found out on some toshiba you have to keep the power buten pressed till you get a black screen
Thank you so much for this, I just pulled this off on a toshiba l305-S5955 that I thought I would have to sell off. I feel like MacGyver r thanks to you lol, btw stripped down speaker wire is what I used for the cable. Thank you so so much just saved me a couple hundred bucks
Thanks so much. I hava a L655D and it worked with memory in place.
For this model it's better if you have another person turn on the laptop for you while you short out the pin. You have to power on the laptop until you don't see the password prompt. Sometimes it will take you 3 to 5 attempts before you can reset it.
Hope that helps.
Worked Like a charm!
thanks again man your number one this method works but take me around 15 atemps but it worked at last
Works great bro on my Toshiba Satellite L505 thanks alot!
It Worked !!! .
Toshiba Satellite L-305 .
Thanks.
You can use any cable used for your computer. You can go to an electronic store and buy a small piece if you dont have one.
Yes. They set a bios password and HD password on the system. Your best bet is to replace the hard drive.
Worked on L355 as well. Had to leave all the parts in, especially the RAM. The power button had to be held down for several seconds to power on.
i just saved so much money doing this. i must have slept at a Holiday Inn Express in my dreams last night.
Oh wow that worked.
If only it were always this easy.
Thanks!
Great tutorial. It's great to see people willing to help others, thank you. I'm trying to help my niece who's Toshiba Satelitte L655-S5153 has the same problem and I cannot like some others locate the jumper's. Any assistance would be deeply appreciated.
IF your a subscriber go to our website and send us an email with a picture of the memory and wifi location. If we find it we will email you back the location of the jumper
Thank you so much!!! This worked on my Toshiba Satellite PSLCBU.
You are the MAN! Thanks for this.
Thanks you are the man. It worked like a champ
It's working, thanks man! good luck...
@7Ragno7
If the laptop has a HDD ( Hard Drive User/Master Password) set you have two option
1.) Buy a third party tool to see if that will remove it.
2.) Change the hard drive with a new bigger and better drive. This option is better since hard drives are so cheap now.
Hope that helps you
@arnoldnavarro21 yes it does, right above the right side of the bottom memory stick holder
Thanks a lot my friend you help me to resolve my problem, already I remove the password, thanks again
@ergonomical69
No. This will not reset the HDD password. You need to find a software solution or replace the drive.
Thank you so much, guys. Very helpful.
Nice Video
It Really Works Thanks for The Solution
Thank you for your quickly answer.
Dont you think that if the chip is bad, the laptop should turn on and work fine for a while untill the chip gets hot and power off the laptop? but ill check the chip just like you said.
Thanks again man.
hi, thank you for this tutorial, i'm culdn't quite understand what kind of wire you used to resset the BIOS, can i use any kind of wire?
tanks this works in toshiba satellite l300..nice
Thnak you, try some times and I finally get it, thank you for give us a Light God Bless You
It was perfect, it's really that i was needed
@Slimfast52
You need to look for the jumper that's label " B500 " next to it. Sometimes you can look for one that has the following ---> "XXX "
Very very very thanks .
Saludos desde Chile.
You have to leave in at least one memory stick..... thanks for this...
Glad to hear that it help you. It's cheaper to buy a new hd then to try and remove the HDD Password bud.
Regards,
Great Video. Worked like a charm. Thank you!
@pequepie It could be very similar to my A215-S4697 ... under the SODIMM memory chips, there is a piece of plastic as @indemmand tells you in his video. Carefully lift that and see if there is a J4 roughly in the middle. I used the spacer as ground.
Don't forget to set your system clock when your computer comes back up.
@andiiz12
Yes this process should work for that model as well.
This was a perfect solution...
Tanks a lot...
Thank You!!! Works for me!!!
You need to remove your hard drive and yes you need to have one memory stick in and short out the jumper and turn the laptop on and hold the jumper in place for at least 30 seconds. Its recommended that you use another person to hold the jumper or turn the laptop for best result.
Thanks man this work like charm
@75tswarts
This video was created for the L305,A205 and A215. You can send us a picture(s) of the memory location and we can try to find the jumper.
Thank you very much! It worked for me.
Yes. you can use a paper clip.
hey that worked perfectly appreciate it
Thank you, this helped me a lot
I was afraid of that. Oh well, that's like $54 for a 500GB. Thank you for your help
@joel36311
Hard drive password are not removed by doing a bios password reset. You can replace the HD with a new one and re-install windows.
Try turning on the laptop with only one memory stick in it. sometimes if you don't insert the memory correctly it will not make contact. Hope that helps
thanks a lot man... i really apreciatte your help!!!!!
Hey man, let me buy you a beer! Thank You!
@tintin0595
There's no component on that area. You need to make a jumper to reset the bios password.
Worked for me...thanks!
