My daughter uses it to do her homework, and yesterday while on the laptop, she I guess got BORED and started messing around with the control panel. And le and behold she changed the password and now cant remember it.

Is there any way of getting it BACK? I know on desktops you can reset bios jumpers, does the same approach work here or is there a good password retrieval software tool?
See Here...

If it's a BIOS password you will have to take it to a Toshiba service center and show proof of ownership.You need to contact Toshiba right away.
Some models may have a wireless connection that will report back to Toshiba if anybody try to open the machine after a password failure.It is a feature called "chassis intrusion". It you are the real owner, there is no problem, you are on file with them. Just call the 800 number are tell them who you are and read the serial number of the laptop.

If you don't do that right away, the FBI will track down the laptop with GPS and come knocking on your door. You should have read this in the instruction manual. Take a look in the manual ans see if it has this feature.

Hoe this helps.

EDIT: Oops, Patio posted firs. Ignore what I said.
Just do NOT open the case!
