The only recourse is to replace the hard drive. Currently there is no support for this issue by the vendor. Toshiba had an update for the BIOS only supported til the end of 2010. But when I try to open the BIOS menu pressing F2 there is nothing (no beeping too). After further review it has been determined that the HDD registered password on Toshiba laptops is a known BIOS problem. But the next time I tried to boot it up the screen came up with nothing (Fans work, Light indicators work). After it says BIOS is successfully updated it shut down and all went quiet. The BIOS version on the notebook was v 1.60 and to be upgraded to v 1.70 the process went smoothly upto the step that it shows it's upgrading insydeH20 firmware with a progress bar in DOS window. I downloaded the BIOS update soon after the notebook recommendeds me to do so from official Toshiba website (MEA) after putting it's exact model number and part number as I have done before. So all this started when I was updating my laptop's bios (which I've done before twice and went smoothly) except for this time.
