{V. FAQ}
1. I can’t use the stylus to control the cursor. Uninstall the Deco 01 V2
driver. If its uninstaller will not run, run the driver’s installer again,
then allow it to uninstall the driver. Reboot, then connect the tablet to your
computer and test your stylus. If the cursor responds to your pen input, the
tablet’s hardware is functional. Reinstall the Deco 01 V2’s driver according
to these steps (Windows): Download the tablet’s latest driver from www.xp-
pen.com, then extract the “.zip” contents onto the desktop and installation.
2. How do I know that the Deco 01 V2’s driver installed successfully? After
installing the driver, the Deco 01 V2’s driver icon should be visible in your

UI’s “Pressure Test” tab.
3. How do I determine if a Problem is software or hardware related? Connect
and install the Deco 01 V2 on a different computer. If the tablet functions
properly on the new computer, you are experiencing a software issue–confirm
