Hi everyone,

I have two serial ports on my computer, which one of them I use to connect my Wacom graphics tablet. When I had windows 2000, both of the ports were being detected and my tablet worked fine, but now that I have windows XP pro, not only does xp not detect my tablet, but only one of my serial ports is being displayed in my device manager.

Anybody know how I can correct this problem?

Thanks

Ramsin
