    Can anyone tell me how to access the BIOS in a toshoba laptop or how to reset the BIOS to the default without taking the laptop apart? My laptop keeps attempting to boot from a network and it keeps telling me to check the cable to see if it's plugged in. I would really appreciate it very much because it's the only computer I have access to. Im send this message from my iPhone.
    Thank you.

    No, I did not delete anything. I went to the BIOS to choose to boot from a USB flash drive and I forgot how to access the BIOS when booting.
