annoying wacom trouble

[gallon]

hi all, I guess when troubleshooting your tablet you guys are the best help there is.
My tablet sometimes stops all pressure sensitivty, acting just like a mouse basically.
Sometimes it helps if I flip from PS to another prog and then back again....sometimes not....
It is so damn annoying, often having to save, restart,,, you know the drill.

Anyone have this experience and the sooo needed solution? (I'm working against a deadline and that *¤% is halting my flow, and making me pissed off :))

I've been having a similar problem lately. If I don't open PS using my tablet, it works as a mouse with no pressure sensitivity. I don't know why, I just do what the machine wants me too. Kill me now.

happens to me almost everyday. for me i'm sure it a memory issue. nothing a good restart wont hurt. new drivers came out on the 10th.

This happens to me when I'm listening to music on my computer while working. It will do it if I'm painting when a song changes. The only way I can fix it on the fly is to open a new image in PS run the brush across the new surface, close without saving, and go back to my piece I was working on.

Let me know if any of you have a better fix than this.
