1) This is not an Ubuntu question.

2) How did you clean you HD?

3) You could take out your HD, put it in another computer and install there.

The BIOS password removal for Toshiba laptops usually involves shortening two connectors in the memory slot bay while powering the laptop up. The label on the connectors is different from model to model. You should ask the Toshiba support for assistance.

I suggest you contact Toshiba. You can always remove the battery in the motherboard (not the laptop battery to power the system).

Can you help with this problem?
