Hi:wavey:

I'm having a problem using my Wacom Graphire CTE-430 with 2 monitors. The problem has come up before in this forum but I couldnt find an answer in previous posts, so here goes......

After installing the Tablet's drivers the tablet space is now mapped to both monitors. This effectively cuts the amount of tablet I can use in half.

In previous posts the apparent solution was to set up the tablet properties to fix this, my problem is that I dont appear to have any options in my properties box to set this.(see attached)

With Windows default drivers the mapping works fine but there is no pressure sensitivity in the pen. Can anyone please help with this?

Thank you

Here's the Wacom page where you can download new drivers:

Yeah... That looks like an old driver. Their should be many more options. The way I do it is to have specific settings for specific applications. Once you have the latest driver installed, you should see a spot that reads " Appilcations with Customized Tool Settings". A box to the right allows you to add the relevent program file. Below that in the area labled "Display Area" I select one particular monitor to map the tablet to.

Hopefully this fixes your problem...
