Windows 10: Drawing tablets

So i bought a tablet back in April, it was working just fine. Up until recently where i ran into a problem. 2 weeks ago, my tablet started to not work, it is a Star G430s Xp-pen. It does not have battery and is wired, when i plugged it in the USB port, the light only blinked once, it is registered in the device list in the settings menu but i tried to use my pen and the cursor would not move, i checked that the USB port is working fine as i could connect my PS4 controller. I thought it was a problem with the tablet so i got a Huion H420 which also ran into the same problem, it only blinked once. Ive tried everything i could find on the internet and even resetting my whole PC but it still doesn't work. Could someone please help me? I'm on Windows 10 Pro version 1903, OS build 18362.295.
