Toshiba will have to do it manually so they would need to physically have the machine. You can use this phone number to find the closest authorized service center 1-800-631-3811

Why is admin PW locked?

BIOS passwords can add an extra layer of security for desktop and laptop computers. They are used to either prevent a user from changing the BIOS settings or to prevent the PC from booting without a password. Unfortunately, BIOS passwords can also be a liability if a user forgets their password, or changes the password to intentionally lock out the corporate IT department. Sending the unit back to the manufacturer to have the BIOS reset can be expensive and is usually not covered in the warranty. Never fear, all is not lost. There are a few known back doors and other tricks of the trade that can be used to bypass or reset the BIOS

Bios password

unless you have a jumper to undo the password for the Bios, you simply need to remember the password, period. Some systems have a generic back-door password for the bios like dell could be dell or inspiron etc. you can google bios back door passwords

MY EX-WIFE PUT A PASSWORD ON MY HP MINI 110NR PC. IS THERE ANYWAY THAT I CAN BYPASS OR RESET MY BIOS PASSWORD BY USEING A BACK DOOR PASSWORD OR ANY OTHER SOLUTION THAT DOESNT COST

The Bios Password Locked is a nightmare, there is no easy solution. Back door approach is risky and can cause permanent damage to the Bios chip. I know! because when I went on line for possible back door solutions it came with strong warnings, I decided the risk was to high and take a different path. I'am afraid there is no resolution without spending money, all the services that I have come across claim they can crack the Bios code at a price.

I have forgotten my BIOS password how do i reset the BIOS or CMOS password of my Toshiba A11-15Z if all methods of jumpers, CMOS battery removal and back door award passwords failed?

That's a doozzy,
There are ways to get passed this, but if the backdoor password recovery has failed - I'd call Toshiba
and find out if there's another option. I have recovered many BIOSes from this issue - but not a simple task in most cases. BIOS chip replacement (Not easy and very expensive to have done)
Here are some Back door passwords:

Forgotten password ASUS P4P800-VM

There is a blue jumper located just below the lithium battery on the motherboard. You need to remove the jumper and move it to the two pins on the right for about 10 seconds to clear the CMOS then move the jumper back to where you found it. That should clear out the password. It will also change all the BIOS settings back to factory so adjustments to the BIOS may need to be made after reset.
