How to activate the handwriting recognition in Windows Vista SP2

Recently, I bought a Wacom Bamboo tablet, model CTL-460. The Tablet works in Adobe Illustrator, Corel Painter Essentials 4, it even works in Windows to scroll, double-click, etc.. The only thing I can't get to work is the handwriting recognition. I thought it may have been my version of Office, so I've recently upgraded to Office 2010 beta, but under ink tools, the only thing it allows me to use is 'Selection of objects.

I tried to change my keyboard in 'Regional and Language Options' under the keyboard 'Other', which includes "Writing Pad", "Write Anywhere" and "Drawing block", but it does not work. I try to click on 'Properties' for the three listed but I get the message error "(empty) property setting is unavailable. I also tried the Windows key + H, but it did not work. I tried all the properties of Tablet I could but nothing worked.

My computer is an IBM - Lenovo T61 Thinkpad of 2007 with a processor Intel Core 2 Duo T7100 @ 1.8 GHZ. I've recently upgraded to SP1 and SP2 to later that day here. I have installed the driver for the tablet before I upgraded to SP1, but updated the driver after the installation of SP2.

Any information on this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    If this screen does not have a sensor to detect the pens or touch, you need to go buy a new touchscreen compatible.

    But if it worked before, then you probably have a driver installed.  Go to the website of the company that builds your screen, and search for downloads.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - how to activate the shortcut keyboard-support on Vista?

    Hello. I've recently updated my satellite pro a100-828 to windows vista, and things work well to a large extent with two exceptions:

    1. I can't figure out how to activate the shortcut keyboard-support: media-keys to the left and the fn keys do nothing. There seems to be no shortcut keyboard-utility for windows vista in the drivers * tion. So what to do?
    2. the standby electricity utility is not available, which is good because of the power saver new vista. Except that I can't dim the screen, so the battery does not last me too long. How can I do this?

    Thanks in advance
    Best regards

  • Satellite P750-13F - how to activate the keyboard backlit on Windows 8

    Hello!

    Today, I installed Windows 8 premium on my P750-13F, which features a backlit keyboard. In order to upgrade to Windows 8 I had to uninstall certain Toshiba drivers and other programs.

    Now, I have fully functional Windows 8, but I don't know how to access the functions of FN key (screen brightness, wifi power button, volume up/down).

    Now that the FN key is innoperative function that I miss the most is that for illumination of the keyboard, because I can still do everything else by other methods (I mean volume up/down, brightness etc) but I don't know how to illuminate the keyboard now.

    I tried to install the Toshiba hardware configuration utility, but it will not install with Windows 8. I like so much if the FN key remains innoperative (although that would be nice if it would not) but what I really want to be able to change the lighting of the keypad.

    I'll be very grateful for any ideas.

    Up to Toshiba doesn t offer Win8 tools and utility there is nothing you can do about it. I hope that will happen very soon.
    So please be patient until the stuff of Win8 will be offered for download.
