*Grumbles* Letting y'all know
8 years ago
*Many cusswords ensue* So for a long ass time I've been trying to get my drawing tablet to work,I got it to work yesterday. All the fucking sudden it won't work again. And personally I am about to chunk it against the wall because its become so frustrating. Ever since they had a mandatory update it WON'T WORK. I've un-downloaded and re-downloaded,I've talked to the support for wacom,I've tried a registry cleaner to find any corrupt files. After trying to get this motherfuckin piece of shit to work a month I am beyond irritated. I don't know if its my laptop,the drivers they have are corrupt or won't comply with my computer even though they should,or what the fuck is wrong,but I am about to shove the download disk to it up some IT guys anus if they keep telling me the same thing.
Sooooo,if you've been waiting on art from me,you know why! Any and all art I have been able to do is done when the tablet magically works,or I've done on my husbands galaxy tablet. *Flips off drawing tablet with a growl*
But yah,I needed to vent my irritation after that...

Also : try this. Go to Start -> search for "Services" -> find your tablet in the list and "STOP" it -> give it 30 seconds and attempt to restart it -> X out whatever program you're working in (Krita, SAI, Photoshop, ect) -> Go back to "Services" and press either "START" or "RESTART" for your tablet -> Re-open your art program and open whatever project you're working on. That is usually a pretty simple runaround for almost all tablets, so if that doesn't work, let me know and I'll see if I can't dig something up for ya!
I'll keep an eye out for more of a fix - I've heard that the support for these things is sub-par at best - I've just fixed mine by screwing with stuff every time so far - but it MIGHT be worth a shot to get ahold of Wacom directly and see what they say. A prime scenario would be if it was still under warranty, but I doubt you're that lucky - I know I never am.
Give em a ring, or an email (calling will probably get you more help though) - see what THEY say - and let me know! I'd like to know what keeps failing in 1/2 of these things? 1/2 of the people I know swear by them (including me) and the other half have a major problem with them constantly not working O.o! There's gotta be some setting or something that stops them from firing up! But yeah, let me know!
I have restarted my computer dozens of times,and I have contacted the Wacom support,I did everything they asked. That's when it worked for a day yesterday,but now its back to not working again,and no matter what I do it won't work again....
But I do appreciate you trying to help,it means a lot since I've been trying so damn long to get it to work again... I have commissions and an art trade waiting,and I can't do anything right now. Slightly depressing and irritating yah know?
Yeah, try calling them since contacting them via tickets / email hasn't gotten you anywhere :\ That's probably the only way actually get a real fix - and heck, it is a driver issue x.x That SHOULD have been THAT easy
Who knows - computers do dumb things I suppose x.x
This is very true...
I use Services sometimes, and that fixes the problem as well. I'm sorry, I might just be repeating what Alcho said.
