So I have a bamboo tablet (from 2010ish) and realized I could replace the pen nib, and was so pleased with figuring it out myself I tossed the old one and didn't test it. Until now. when it won't work. at all. unplug, replug, pull out, stick in gently, stick in roughly, shake it around. the light changes intensity, but the cursor it does nothing. no va a functionar. I'm guesssing at the moment it might be software besides just the pen itself?

OK I found something on Yahooooooo Answers that said reset the "bamboo preferences" and that seems to work now? I had no idea but given how often it randomly fucks up drivers it's no surprise.

well I guess this gives me time to save up for a Cintiq now that I've been art-bonering wanting one
