Help an Idiot?

I inherited a wacom tablet and have no friggin clue where it plugs in. I am not very computer savvy. It doesn’t have a usb port and I can’t find a matching plug anywhere on my tower or monitor. I feel like i am missing something. Can someone please help me. Thanks.

…on a serial port behind your tower
And go there for have some drivers
:wink:

Serial port…ala your printer port…if you don’t happen to have an open serial connection. What is the Wacom’s model?

My Wacom tablets have all had a usb plug. Ha it been altered? Ask the donor what they used, or maybe take it to Radio-Shack and get an adapter. You may also contact Wacom and ask them.

do you mean your computer doesnt have a usb port or you tablet doesnt have a usb plug?

The tablet itself has a plug I am not familiar with. It looks a lot like a monitor plug but a bit smaller and it is male. No clue. I think I am going to take it to an IT guy at work and see what he thinks. Thanks for all the input guys, I appreciate it.

maybe you need an adapter like this.

I believe Serial Port was the correct answer?

the earliest versions of wacom tablets used serial connectors. the link below someone posted with a serial to usb connector should work for you…You might have a hard time finding a driver for it though if you didn’t inherit that as well. I might still have some old disks with drivers on them if you don’t…maybe I have one for the model you have.

serial connectori is right… btw… wacom drivers do work on them… u’ll be fine :slight_smile:
