Tablet not working?

So i got a new tablet about a month ago (CTH 480) and i've been using the 6.3.10w2 drivers since i got it, now i didn't have any issues with it until just recently, now it feels as if my tablet area is not representative of what actually happens in game. It feels as if my cursor will move, curve, or start to deccelerate/accelerate. Overall it just feels extremely floaty, and as a result I miss aim everything. Things i hit before are impossible for me now. I've checked all my settings, ive tried with raw input, without, ive made sure Make my pen good was working, ive reinstalled drivers multiple times, changed the tablet port, tried enabling and disabling windows ink, and NOTHING worked. I've also been using the exact same area and grip for the past 3 weeks, so i see absolutely no reason that it should be such a HUGE drop in aiming ability after a single night, and yeah it happened literally overnight, i went to sleep aiming fine, woke up and bam everything has gone to shit. I'm at a loss for why this is happening as i've looked at everything. Please if you have any ideas please post them, Thank you.

Here are some images of what happens to me (Note: i never had this happen to me before, it literally changed overnight)

Now I'm sorry that noone has responed to your questions so far, I'm not the most tech-savvy person, but I'll try to do my best to help you.

This might be a very very small possibility, but seeing as most CTH-480s' nowadays are bought in an already used condition, it might be that your problems comes from your tablet being close to the end of its life cycle - though by no means do I suggest that is indeed the case, I only think it's a possibility -

One thing I think you might want to clarify though is: Does the problem only occur while playing osu! or does it also happen on your desktop or other applications? :o

Something that I remember seeing a while back was this reddit-thread, which is kind of similar in the problem that you explained, maybe you could try things mentioned there
- though I am not sure the problem addressed in the thread got solved by the solutions presented so take it with a grain of salt -

Try to use the newest driver version for your wacom tablet maybe. Here, they say it is "highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available".

Now this might be a gimmicky thing, but for the longest time I had a problem with sweaty hands, so I used rubberbands to prevent my grip from slipping into a weird position, one of them happened to be in a position where it constantly "pressed" on of the pen-keys. Playing with that setup kind of made my cursor rather shaky and unstable, taking them off solved that issue though.

Also, this is what I wanted to type initially in reply to your question: Maybe you just had a bad day, bad streak, weren't warmed up etc. - there's many non-hardware related problems that could be causing your perceived loss of aim -

Anyways, I hope the problem will have fixed itself by the time you read this. If not...Ehh..uhm..maybe reinstall windows and pray to Cookiezi? :cry:
