A while ago I had dropped my tablet about 3 feet onto a cement surface, but for the most part, it still worked fine. However, I was doodling a bit last night, trying to draw something completely from scratch with it, rather than scanning inked linework. I noticed that if I had the image zoomed out to maybe 25-50%, and made a very long line, when I zoomed back in, it looked really jagged or zig-zagged, especially if I was only using a light stroke, rather than using more pressure. I just tried to see if the same thing happens with the mouse, and it does. Is this just a natural result of trying to make intricate lines in a zoomed out mode, or is there some setting in Photoshop/Painter I could change to fix it, or are both my mouse and tablet fubar-ed?

Screen cap and post what you drew. I need screen cap at 100% zoom.

What did you draw with? Photoshop? Painter? Either way, it might be due to interference. Is your monitor a CRT? If it is, pull the tablet away from it and try again. If it persists, try uninstalling and reinstalling Wacom drivers.
Hmm...didn't think of that. I actually did notice once when I had my tablet right below the monitor, that the cursor would seem to shake on its own even if I was holding it pretty steady.
Edit: Although that shouldn't really affect the mouse, would it?

I thought you meant the Wacom mouse, which it would effect same as the pen. Obcourse the normal mouse wouldn't be effected at all, and why you included it's stroke in the pic is mystery to me if it wasn't the Wacom tablet mouse.
