    Driver required for Graphics Tablet

    Locked

    by chrisaaaaaa23 · about 22 years, 4 months ago

    I am in desparate need. I have Windows NT4.0 on my PC. At the weekend I bought a “TABBY 2” graphics tablet. I believe it is made by a company called GRAFTEK. The disk included with the package only has 95/98 drivers, but the packaging definitely states that the product will work on NT.

    Does anyone have any idea where I might get the drivers from?

    I cannot find a web site for this company, and I would like to get the drivers rather than get my money back.

      1) The OEMSETUP.INF file that NT will look for may not be at the root of the floppy, try searching the floppy for it. *or* Search for somesort of executable for instalation.
      2) Use the “Add new hardware” in Start.Settings.Control Panel. It may be under pointing device, or it may be under Miscelaneous. Try installing from there.
      3) If all that you want to do is use the tablet in AutoCAD or Microstation (or some other CAD&D program), check for support included with the design software. Many times CADD programs have their own type of driver for a tablet or pen that they will ‘share’ with Windows.
      4) Please email me with more details on what you have tried, what you need, and what you need it for… (percrules@hotmail.com)
      Good luck…

      Try http://www.windrivers.com, they have what I would say the biggest list of hardware drivers for components, and you can e-mail them for an answer to your question if you get stuck.

      Try http://www.mrdriver.com or driverguide.com or the manufacturer’s website. Windrivers.com is an excellent starting point though. Hope it works for you.
