SilverCrest Tablet Issue

Solved
SakuraHaruno26 -  
Hello, my mother just bought me a SilverCrest SGT 10.6 tablet.
I open it, I read the manual carefully... I install the driver, and then they tell me: "the device is recognized and usable", something like that.
I think it's all good, and then: problem. I move the stylus, but nothing happens.
I try to reinstall the driver, change the USB ports, but nothing at all :'(

Can someone please help me?

Configuration: Vista

    Hello,

    You open GIMP, go to Edit --> Preferences --> Input Devices --> Configure Extended Input Devices, click to open the window, and you'll see the type and name of your tablet. There, you select Default Screen and click on Save Input Device State Now, then on Validate. Close and restart GIMP, and your tablet should work normally... ;-)

    The price of software is inversely proportional to its ergonomics....

      Hello!
      No, there is no type and name of the tablet, there is just "Core Pointer" and it's already on Screen :'(

      What should I do, please? :'(

      Hello,

      Well, just continue the procedure until the end as explained above, we'll see if your tablet is recognized that way, otherwise we will need to try to configure GIMP...

      Oh, I had done it all the way to the end, but it didn't change anything :)

      It's just that GIMP doesn't recognize it as a tablet; you can use it in mouse mode (much more precise than the mouse) but you won't have pressure sensitivity...
      Wait for another opinion just in case a solution comes to mind that I don't know about.. :-((

      PS: just an idea that comes to mind, was your GIMP installed before or after your tablet?
