If your issue is not to be able to click / tap the lower right corner of your desktop, simply move your Taskbar up or left and voila! The lower right corner is free to click or tap.

Hi Kari, Et al
The problem here is that to calibrate the screen you have to click on all four corners in order so wherever the taskbar is it will interfere with at least two corners that you need access to.
There was on earlier windows versions option to not have the taskbar "always on top" If this is duplicable in windows 7 this would be solve this issue
Unfortunately I can find no information on this option or any other similar registry entry
The on top nature of the taskbar can be overridden as running Opera for example in full screen mode allows you to click on any corner to the very edge - maybe a way of making the calibration screen full screen in the same way is the way to go? | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Real World Computing (Me + a little help from Acer) OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 + x86 + Windows 8 x64 CPU AMD Phenom II X6 1035T 2.6 GHz Motherboard Aspire M3400 Memory 4Gb PC10600 DDR3 1333 MHz Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce 315 512MB Sound Card OnBoard - Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Philips 32" HDTV, (HDMI) + 26" TV (VGA) Screen Resolution 1920 x 1080 @60Hz + 1360 x 768 @60Hz Keyboard Microsoft Wireless 800 or Stock Acer, (depends where I sit) Mouse Microsoft Wireless 800 or Stock Acer, (depends where I sit) PSU Stock (400W) Case Acer M3400 Cooling Stock Hard Drives 500 GB Seagate ST3500418AS SATA II

WAG - While the calibration app is in focus, press F11 to go full screen? | My System Specs | | |

Following on from my earlier post, and Antman's F11 suggestion, with regards to On top windows.
I think the F11 is application dependent but I did find this which may allow the calibration window to be set "On Top", and thus usable for configuration. How To Make A Window Stay Always On Top in Windows 7 | Windows 7 hacker
No guarantee that it will work but maybe worth installing and giving a try and then removing after things are set up | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Real World Computing (Me + a little help from Acer) OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 + x86 + Windows 8 x64 CPU AMD Phenom II X6 1035T 2.6 GHz Motherboard Aspire M3400 Memory 4Gb PC10600 DDR3 1333 MHz Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce 315 512MB Sound Card OnBoard - Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Philips 32" HDTV, (HDMI) + 26" TV (VGA) Screen Resolution 1920 x 1080 @60Hz + 1360 x 768 @60Hz Keyboard Microsoft Wireless 800 or Stock Acer, (depends where I sit) Mouse Microsoft Wireless 800 or Stock Acer, (depends where I sit) PSU Stock (400W) Case Acer M3400 Cooling Stock Hard Drives 500 GB Seagate ST3500418AS SATA II
