    I am unable to log onto my netbook because the password spot is below the visible screen . How can I get it up to where I can put the password in? It is a toshiba netbook 305. Thank you for any help.

    Easiest solution, temporarily hookup an external monitor so you can see the box for the password.

    I'm not sure if this works in Win 7 starter to reposition a window. (It works in 7 Home Premium)
    Press alt + spacebar then press M. You will get a 4 headed arrow. You can then move the window where you want it.
    You will

    Once the password screen has loaded carefully type your password in then hit return,the cursor is already in the box you don't need to see it then adjust your desktop resolution.

    You will need to boot into Safe mode, remove the display drivers, and then let Windows reload the default. From there, you can install the appropriate drivers from the manufacturer, if 7 does not load them.
