i got a wacom tablet [intuos3] for christmas. i wanted it for graphics design. first, i installed it on one of our laptops just to try it out, and i could write; ex: in explorer i could handwrite the address and it would recognize my handwriting and go in the box. this was on VISTA.
now i installed in on the computer that i'm going to use it on and i cant use it to write, which was quite convenient, and this operating system is XP.
writing isnt gonna be its primary use but it'd be nice to not have to pull out my keyboard to type.
i've been searching everywhere and i cant find how to make it like it was on vista
(and no i didnt do anything differently when i installed it)
i know its the operating system, but is there anyway i can make it do like it did on vista?

I occaisionally have my sound cut out on my computer when playing audio and video files. Originally it was just MIDI files but just today the sound cut while playing FSX. Now there is no sound for any files, through youtube WMP, nothing. Volume is up, speakers are plugged in properly and sound drivers under the "my computer-manage" thing have no yellow exclamation points. Any solutions? Thanks for your time!

I have difficulty in locating the most recent BEST ANSWER chosen, whenever I receive notice of it.
Occassionally, it will appear in the say top 5 of the listings board; but more often than not, I have to review all of them, before finally discovering which one is most current, and just posted.

Is their an activation process, in which the last posting will appear at the top of the board, and then all the others in sequence of reception?

Would appreciate any and all suggestions as to how I can solve this problem.

And please don't refer me to the Forum, or the judging panel; I've given up on both, long ago.

Thanks,

Wotan

It seems like in Singapore we got a lot of companies touting their policies for recycling computer parts, but none of them seem to have a collection of any sorts for the man in the street. I'm hoping there are options other than just dumping the hardware in the rubbish and adding mercury to some landfill somewhere. Can anyone advise on any pick up or drop off service I could use?

I think there must be a series of keys to re-start the keyboard but I can't remember. I don't know what keys I hit, or if I did, to cause the keyboard to "lock up" so they are not recognized.
