I have a photoshop + tablet issue, I hope this is the right place to post it.

Alright, so I recently bought this tablet (Wacom Cintiq 12WX - can't post links) and hooked it up to my laptop. It works fine with small programs like standard paint and Paint Tool SAI, but whenever I try to use it with Photoshop (CS3) or Open Canvas or Painter, it just stops responding. My mouse will still move if I use the touch pad on the laptop, but the tablet won't work until i minimize or close the program.

I tried reinstalling Photoshop and the tablet, but of course nothing changed afterwards. I thought that maybe its my physical memory? When I use SAI, at the bottom of the program it always says "Memory Load: 90% (65 MB used / 797 MB reserved)", or some numbers close to those depending on what other program I have open. I'm not much of a computer person, but should I look into upgrading my laptop's memory? Would that maybe help?

Also, I have Vista if that helps any, haha.

Thank you so much for reading!
