If you haven't set any password for your hard drive then i think it would be your hard drive issue or it may be an issue with your BIOS for that may i know which version of BIOS are you having it, for checking BIOS version you need to press ESC key and the setup will start over here you would be able to get the BIOS Version.

In my Toshiba satellite laptop my BIOS version is 1.40.I have already taken Backup of my Hard drive.
Re: Toshiba laptop asks for hard drive password
Try to update your BIOS from version 1.40 to Version 1.50 and it's might be possible that after updating your BIOS you won't get any message for HD1 password= for accessing your hard drive if you still get the message the try to replace your hard drive and have a check it might happen that your HDD has being corrupted because of that you are getting this message.
