Sorry, I could help if it was photoshop. Have you been using the software long?

Just from a blind guess the options for pressure sensitivity might be located in the options or preferences panel, or in brush options somewhere.... could depend on the type of tablet you're using, too.

I'm not sure what is meant by pressure sensitivity, but what version are you using?

I use 6.02, but I mostly just putter around. The brushes have settings, though, for Hardness, Opacy, Desnity, and Step. Perhaps by playing around with those settings, you can get your desired affect?

If you can not see the tool options window, which, by default kind of floats around the screen on it's own, go to View -> Toolbars and make sure Tool Option Window is checked.

I think I found it! XD
You have to go to View -> Palettes -> Brush Variance
(Make sure you have the brush tool selected)
Every one of those options seems to have a choice - *Pressure
So change whichever properties you want to be pressure-sensitive, and that should work. You probably want to change at least Opacity and Size.
Hope that helps! (My version is 8, I hope this will still work if you have a different version.)

ooohhh
Tablet PC...
I do not believe that most tablet laptops are actually built to be pressure sensitive, as it's not what they were designed/programmed for.

THAT BEING SAID...

http://www.wacom.com/tabletpc/index.cfm
seems to imply that with a wacom stylus that CERTAIN tablet PCs are designed with Wacom componants and there is a Tablet PC driver here.>>http://www.wacom.com/tabletpc/driver.cfm, but I'm not sure how well it'll work and if it will add the pressure sensitivity that you desire.

I do have a pressure sensitive stylus pen with it. So far, i know it has pretty good pressure because of a simple painting program it comes with o.o/

Sorry about that - I know less than nothing about laptops, let alone tablet PCs... I guess it must be in one of the computer's own setup settings then, I really don't know.
