Please resort to your installation discs that came originally with your computer package. Those install discs can be used as recovery discs. Try to do an OS repair install from those discs. If the problem still persists, I would suggest to wipe and format the hard disk and start a clean installation again. I understand your warranty expired but if it was only let's say three days ago, it should still be disputed. If your new installation doesn't work either, then I would suggest you contact your supplier to work out a replacement of your hard disk. Good luck.

My laptop has a bios password and it doesn't want to work anymore. I tried many times with no success. Do you know how to reset the bios to this model A205-S5879??? Any help will be...
That password exists to protect YOU, should a THIEF be in possession of your computer.
So, there is no "easy" way for the thief (or you) to "bypass" that "security-feature".

Instead, take the original sales-receipt, to prove that you own the computer,
and telephone Toshiba, and ask for Technical Support.
When you prove that you are the owner, Toshiba can assist you.

Does the Toshiba A205-S5879 use a DVD+RW or DVD-RW or can it use both?
It's DVD drive can read both +RW and -RW, and can write +R and -R (NOT RW!!!!) I hope this answers your question, Yannick.
