Your pointing device cannot be used as a tablet.

Check in Options > System for something like this...

If you have problems with the driver, I might have one that will work.

I am currently setting up the same digitizer for the third time. The second time was the best with nice absolute coordinate recognition. This time I can't remember what magic voodoo I did to make it work. I keep getting an error message when I tell autocad to recognize "wintab by autodesk" But I have a calcomp super3 using TW 10.9.24 driver.

You're attempting this using AutoCAD 2012 and what OS?

I have windows 7 - 64 bit

The last OS you got it to work with was what? XP? And was that 64-bit too or 32-bit?

The last good configuration was to the same machine with same Win7 -64bit. Right now I have to crop off some of the usable 30"x36" of tablet space to have the aspect ratio match my monitor/autocad window. Along with a scaled window so that it's 1:1, kinda hokey. I bummed that I didn't keep notes on how I got it work correctly last time.
