Did the software work in the past?
If the software package worked with the tablet in the past, then the problem lies 
with the new setup. 
Check all the connectors. Is the tablet still plugged into the same port? If yes, reset 
the tablet by turning the power switch OFF and ON. Also, you may want to restart 
the software. 
Did you reset or power down the computer?
During reset and power on, the computer can send meaningless characters out the 
serial port and this can disable the tablet. Reset the tablet again. 
Have you installed any new software or hardware? Remove it from your system and 
see if the problem goes away. 
Did you move any cables?
Have you updated the software or its drivers?
Did you reinstall the software, perhaps after a problem with your hard drive? 
Double check your installation procedure and the driver you selected. 
Reinstall the software from its master diskettes or CDs. The program files may have 
been corrupted.
