How can I adjust the driver lie if the head isn't adjustable. I find if i get closer to the ball the drives go nice and straight but I lose distance. I think if I stand back a little I can get the distance, but then I slice the ball. When i'm right on the ball it's harder to get that full swing going. i notice guys standing so far away that the sole o fthe driver isn't on the ground and i know thats not correct. I know because they can't a driver doing that. I would think the hosel has to bend to be able to stand back and still have the sole on the ground.

You can't adjust the lie of a non-adjustable driver.  I would recommend taking a video of your swing and post it in the Member Swings section.  There are other factors that can cause the ball flight issues.

Pretty much this.

As the loft decreases the effect that lie angle has on a club decreases as well. Even if you were to change the lie angle at degree or two it wouldn't have that much of an effect on shot.
