Monoprice Graphics Tablet Pressure Help?

I recently purchased a Monoprice Graphics Tablet 10×6.5, and everything seems to be functioning well except for one issue: the tablet does not register pressure in programs like Photoshop, Paint Tool SAI, GIMP, or any other applications. However, when I test the pressure sensitivity in the tablet's settings menu, it works perfectly. Does anyone know why this might be happening? Additionally, I am using Windows 7 64-bit.

I also have a question about using Paint Tool SAI: how do I get the cursor to move with my tablet? Currently, I am unable to move the cursor while in SAI. Thank you for your help!

These applications probably don’t support that brand of tablet – sounds like some obscure brand name. Send it back and ask for a refund if you can.

You’d be better getting a WACOM tablet. GIMP and Photoshop support these for sure.

You probably connected the tablet before installing the included drivers. When that happens, the tablet defaults to the windows drivers which do not support pressure sensitivity. Please follow the steps below.

Go to device manager.

Uninstall the drivers.

Disconnect the tablet

Reboot

Install the drivers

Reboot

Once everything is back up, plug in the tablet.

Wait a minute for the drivers to register.

It will work fine after that.
