When I installed my Bamboo tablet in Windows 7, a ring shows anytime I click with the pen. Which annoys me.

I have found the solution:

  1. Open Local Group Policy Editor. It is quite hidden - search for it in Windows Start menu or in Control panel - use the search box as I have not found the shortcut for it. Alternatively you can run gpedit from command line (not from Run in Start menu).

  2. Navigate to User Configuration - Administrative Templates - Windows Components - Tablet PC - Cursor.

  3. Enable the Turn off pen feedback setting.

The instructions involving the Group Policy Editor will work for Windows Professional and Ultimate. But it doesn't work on Windows 7 Home Premium - because Home Premium doesn't have a Group Policy Editor.

Essentially you'll need to modify the registry to disable the rings. There's a REG file at the bottom at the link below that will do this for you
