Locate Walcom Tablet from the list of devices, right-click it and select “ Update driver ”. A new window will pop up asking whether you want to update the drivers automatically or manually. Select the second option (manually). Browse to the location where you downloaded the drivers and install them. The package provides the installation files for Wacom USB Device Driver version 7.3.4.16. If the driver is already installed on your system, updating (overwrite-installing) may fix various issues, add new functions, or just upgrade to the available version.
To see how these entries appear in an INF file, check out cdrom.inf in the Windows driver samples repo.
Values in the list can be used to install device drivers on Windows 2000 and later, unless specially noted.
