forgot password C55t-A5222 windows 8

[mildbcos1]

I have a AC522c-A522 I acquired from the from the estate of a friend who recently passed away.

Of course when I boot it up it asks for a password which I do not have. I just to need to reset back to factory default. I have tried completely shutting down the laptop and powering on while holding the "0" (zero key), while tapping the zero key, pressing and holding F12 key, and tapping the F12 while repeating multiple times ;. I obviously have no recovery disk. How can I just reset to factory defaults. I certainly do not want to spend $39.95 to order a recovery disk from Toshiba that I will never use again. Please advise as soon possible.

Thank You,

Bill
