toshiba service manuals have a lot more password removal technics if you search for them
i could list but would be here all day seems strange toshiba would give you way to bypass them but they do Smile

i.e toshiba l300 (l305 etc..) series use b500 solder pads which you short while powering up
satellite m45-s269 short pads c738 while powering on
toshiba satellite a135-s2276 short pads jopen1 while powering on

cheers

Hi,
I did locate some "Reset Jumpers" but no luck with those, see pictures.

I try to short them for 15sec and short them during boot, but no luck.

This machine has two ST2402 w6, so I guess the only way is to read those out?....right?

We unlocked some Dynabook models like Dynabook EX-47BRDT, EX-56MRD, etc. and we were able to extract and decrypt the password(s). I mean full recovery password, no modds, no nada.
I belive almost all Dynabook share the same interesting setup, so we can have them unlocked.

To unlock them, all you need is to order our SPEG programmer to read the BIOS and EC chips and email the files to us for password recovery. SPEG is US $79 shipped and can be ordered in our store and the service is free.
www.allservice.ro/store/utils/

Or.. purchase the unlock service for only US $35 and send the dumps to support-at-allservice.ro
