Subject: Pressure sensitivity of tablet not working anymore

I have a Wacom Intuos 3 tablet, photoshop CS6 and Windows 7.  I have no idea why, but the pressure sensitivity of my tablet won't work anymore.  I did a search on google to see if others had had the same problem, on Adobe's forum found a solution that seems to have worked for many so I tried that...  Roughly, it said to uninstall my wacom driver, unplug the tablet, reboot, install driver, plug the tablet and reset my preferences in photoshop.  I've done this last night and it worked, I was thrilled but it was late, was exhausted,so I turned off my computer and went to bed.  When I turned it back on and went in photoshop this morning it didn't work anymore, pressure sensitivity was gone again.  I get this little warning in my brush settings when I try to put it on Pen Pressure or tilt or other setting that requires pressure sensitivity, but it doesn't tell me how to fix it.  I've also tried installing different drivers, the latest one and then older ones to see if it would make a difference to no avail...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!  I'm starting to feel a little desperate...

How old is the fiber tip in the pen? They do wear out and I believe that's a symptom.

 

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again

Also I find that changing the tip works however if you still get a problem, try uninstalling the program or drivers and reinstalling them, sometimes if you unplug the usb cable form your system and plug it into another port, it wont register the change...this might be yoru issue but I have encountered, this particular issue when I changed usb ports, now I have to number the plugs to fit where they are to go.

Try if there is a progrm to see if there is a set up or calibration for the tablet, sometimes it could be with in the drivers themselves in case the pressure is not set properly, this should be in the control panel, and an icon for tablets.
