I want to connect a mouse and a tablet to the same computer.
I want the mouse's cursor to be separate from the cursor used by the tablet.
Is there a way to make two pointing devices control two separate mouse cursors on Windows 7?

You can try Microsoft's Multipoint . Its basically used in educational institutions to cut down on hardware costs .
Or you can use MultiMouse but they very clearly express that you need more than one machine and is more of a collaborative tool .
I guess Microsoft doesnot pose any such restriction so you can go for it although I think at $139 the price is a bit steep
You can also try Wunderworks (sadly this is paid too )
All these tools allow multiple mouse points , might also work with tablet .
Couldn't find any mention of any other input devices besides mouse and keyboard though.
Perhaps TeamPlayer software would suit your needs.
From the website:
TeamPlayer is an easy, free software which lets you connect two or more mice and keyboards to the same computer. Does it look tricky to understand? Here are the easy steps to make you achieve this amazing result.
That’s it!
TeamPlayer comes in two licences. The first one is a commercial licence you have to pay for. The second one is a private licence which is completely for free, but with just one limitation: you can not connect more than 2 users and with limited functionality.
