Your daughter's netbook is using an ancient version of Android. If it was in perfect working condition it would essentially be worthless.

However, I will assume that it has a USB 2 port. It has to have something to allow it to be connected to the "outside world".

Go to Craig Electronics. Presumably your firmware is still functional. Download Android 2.2 - which is almost totally worthless. That can be obtained from Craig, Follow the instructions to reformat the hard drive with Android 2.2. Then give it the new password that it will request.

However, Craig does have a policy that will let you trade this netbook in as partial payment for a newer model with Android 4.3. I would recommend this course of action because the improvement in performance will be massive.

Crystal View NB4-3/5788 7 inch Netbook. I forgot the password, no volume button. How factory reset with no volume button.

Question edited for clarity.

You can't. You have to fix the Volume button first as it is the thing that initiates the reset. But you can try the volume Up button instead. Some version of Android will work with either or both Up and Down.

How do I hard reset my Craig clp281?

Forgot lock pattern on android? Here's a way to reset it.
Enter wrong pattern 5 times and wait for 30 seconds.
Select "Forgot pattern" and enter your gmail account username and password.
Make sure you use the same account that was used to activate the tablet and double check the
password by logging in to that Google account in a browser on laptop or PC
If you don't have access to the original Gmail account, you will need to do a hard reset and
loose your settings and apps on the Netbook. The data on the memory card will not be wiped
though.
If all else fails...

I forgot my password on my craig 7inch netbook how do i hard reset my device?

To reset the 7 inch Craig Netbook you need to shut it down and take out the battery, Leave it for couple of mins with no charger (press and hold the power button to get every bit of power out of the various components inside) and put the battery and charger back in and power it back up.
