Thank you for the question. the Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus product works with 2-in-1 Windows devices that have built-in inside their hardware, either Wacom Active ES protocol (AES) or Microsoft Pen Protocol (MPP). That said, if this is a desktop, you will need a Wacom Tablet to draw, create and write. The tablet itself will come with a stylus so, the Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus is not the product you are needing in the end.If you have any further questions, I'd like to invite you to reach out to us on weekdays between 6 am and 6 pm PST to 1 (855) 699-2266.
