Graphics tablet driver stops keyboard from working. [SOLVED]

[Da Mole]

Hi, first post, GO!

So i recently bought a UGEE M1000L graphics tablet to use with my Windows 8 laptop. However once i had installed the drivers and restarted the system the built in keyboard would not work at all. I brought up the on screen keyboard and logged in to test the tablet. The computer was picking up the pen fine and detecting pressure and buttons also but the built in keyboard refused to function still.

So i did some snooping in Device Manager. The keyboard tab showed 2 'HID Keyboard Device's and a 'Standard PS/2 Keyboard'. So the computer could see the keyboard and upon restarting i noticed that the keyboard worked up until the login screen, i could enter and mess about with the BIOS settings fine. At this point i uninstalled the drivers, restarted the system and the keyboard magically came back to life so i am assuming there is a driver conflict somewhere.

My question is, does anyone have any idea how to get the two to play nice together? Any help or ideas would be appreciated at this point.

Thanks.

I contacted UGEE who promptly responded and told me to uninstall any ELAN or Synaptics programs from the 'uninstall a program' section of the control panel. After doing this EVERYTHING WORKED PERFECTLY! Thanks and all credit to the UGEE customer service.
