How do I make my tablet pc pen work again?

Tofu a la Mode asked:
I have a Gateway tablet pc. (The smaller one I think.) I turned it on today and was going to draw, but the pen isn’t working. At all. It doesn’t move the cursor or even register with the computer. How can I fix it myself? I checked the settings and nothing is wrong with them. It also has not gotten wet or been cropped, and I keep the pen in the computer when not in use.

I’m pretty sure that Gateway TabletPC’s use Finepoint Technology screens.
This means the pens probably have batteries in them. So it’s likely the batteries have died. Open the pen and replace the batteries and you should be good to go.

I’d give it a “HAH!” and a “HIGH-YAH!” And then I’d kick it.
JK, my BDE, does your pen need some batteries? Perchance, some good ol’ AAA’s? I can get that for ya. Cheap.
