Bill you can run the Wacom under NT, but you will have to get the NT drivers. let me know if you can not find it and I will send it to ya. As to using the mouse and pad combo I do not know. BTW I got the Art-z pad but sent it back because it did not work with Imagine, and the Kurta pad I have can't run because of the lack of NT drivers. <<Well its true that on Ammedia its an issue, whether or not it has any merit has yet to be proven.>> <G> Brandon

Hi Brandon, << Bill you can run the Wacom under NT, but you will have to get the NT drivers. let me know if you can not find it and I will send it to ya. >> Last night I searched the MS Knowledgebase and found a reference which pointed to the Wacom BBS, but the number given was disconnected. Then I found Wacom here on CIS, and d/l a list of all files since 1992. I found 1 very new driver pak vers. 2.11 WIN for the 420/ series & 5.01 DOS, which was the only one more current than what I tried before (which is what I use with WFWG). It was too late to try the install then, but there is no specific reference to NT. Do you have this driver pak, or is there something *specific* to NT ? This just says 3.xx & greater. If so, I would greatly appreciate you telling me how/where to get it. I'm reluctant to attempt to install this now, due to the experience with trying to install my WFWG drivers. Thanks a lot, BILL

Brandon, I just found the beta NT drivers, and got the Wacom + the mouse running OK. But, the control panel items are all ghosted except scaling, and pressure sensitivity doesn't work. It also used my modem's interrupt. Do you by any chance use the PS stylus, and if so, does it work ? Thanks a lot for the offer. BILL
