THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE INSTALLATION
For serial tablets:
•
Turn off your computer and attach the tablet
before
installing the software.
•
If your computer does not have an available serial port, you will need to remove an existing serial
device or add an additional serial port.
•
Some computers have a built-in modem and the external serial port may be disabled or configured with
the same serial port address as the modem. If your tablet does not communicate properly after
installing the hardware and software, check your serial port to verify that it is properly configured.
See
for more information.
•
If you are using a
under Windows 95 or later or NT 4.0 or later, Intuos will automatically
function in the DOS shell after you install the Wacom drivers for Windows.
For USB tablets:
•
Intuos requires that you connect the tablet to a primary USB port (located at the back of your
computer) or to a powered USB hub.
•
Your computer must be USB ready and the USB port or powered hub you are connecting your tablet to
must be active. See
Verifying Your Computer is USB Ready
