    Might want to ask in the Toshiba forums as actual owners there may be able to help. Don't post again, just click the red triangle with exclamation point below your name and ask for it to be moved.

    If you can not enter the BIOS how did you reset it?
    Are you using an external keyboard, if yes disconnect it and use the laptop KB
