Toshiba L775D BIOS password clarification

[p1muserfan]

I was given a Satellite L775D by a friend and of course the BIOS is password protected. I tried the bios master password generator posted by Yashjovi and that didn't work. I'm posting here because the more I research I do the more confused I get as to whether the bios can be accessed or not. Worst case scenario I will just replace the motherboard or replace the bios chip itself if that would work, but a definitive answer would be the best. Any help would really be appreciated.

trying to remove the bios password is a dead end in my opinion, there is no way.
best thing to do is replace the BIOS chip or flash it with a dump file which you can download from toshiba official support.

Not too up on this but I take it a dump file is different from the ACPI Flash BIOS version 1.50 for Satellite I see on the Toshiba website? Because remember, as soon as the machine is turned on it prompts for the bios password...
