If it can be reset you will need to find the mother board battery and remove it for 20 mins and this will clear the CMOS of the BIOS.

If it is the newer ones the info is keep on a separate security chip and you will have to contact Toshiba with proof of owner ship to get help.

I hope this helps.

There is a chance of "bricking" the bios (renduring it useless) with the wrong technique, thus it is recommended to get it done at a Toshiba service center.
It costs about $99 and you will need proof of ownership.

Hope this helps.
Toshiba service center can clear / reset the Bios password as I stated in my comment:
