Have watched many videos and read many posts, but none mentions this issue.
After the KDE symbol comes up, everyone talks about a PIN screen, but that's not what I get.
I'm getting something called 'User Configuration', where it asks for Full Name, Username, and Password.
After (I think) entering those (it's very awkward because it just shows the keyboard - I'm hitting <CR> and
      then have to push the Power button to see the entries!) and using '123456' as the Password, nothing happens.
I'm sure there is a simple explanation for this - can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance, everyone.
I've had this before. Try pressing and holding the top of the configuration window and drag it until you see the next box. You could also flip to landscape mode. Makes it easier to get to. 
Thanks for the response.
I'm not able to move the configuration window - pressing, holding, etc. don't do anything.
Also, it's already in landscape mode - doesn't seem to be changeable.
The weirdest thing is that the keyboard remains there, so it's blocking the input boxes, unless I click on the Power button.
BTW, does it matter what you enter for name and username, and is '123456' the correct password?
For some reason, it's either not getting them or not accepting them.
