From AMD to NVIDIA and pupack pinup player won't work anymore

[kilicool]

Hello,

I recently replaced my AMD 6900 XT with an NVIDIA 5070 Ti. I use VPX and a Meta Quest 3 for VR pinball.

Everything was working fine with my AMD setup.

I used DDU to properly remove all AMD drivers, installed the NVIDIA card, then installed the latest drivers and rebooted my system.

Now, older tables (Stern, Williams, etc.) still work, but any tables that use PuP Packs no longer work because PinUp Player is not functioning.

I get the following error:

“An ActiveX component cannot create an object: 'PinUpPlayer.PinDisplay'”

As a result, all tables with PuP Packs are no longer working.

Could someone please help me resolve this issue?

Thank you.

Did you set your pupplayer in popper settings to gl or direct? did you try to reregister pupplayer? 
did you try to re install direct X? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35 
I do not use Popper, PupPlayer only with a nvidia - its working.

“ActiveX component can't create object: 'PinUpPlayer.PinDisplay'”

usually means that the PinUp Player COM/ActiveX component is not properly registered in Windows, rather than being a direct NVIDIA driver issue.

Since the problem appeared after the hardware and driver change, I'd try the following:

Close VPX and PinUP applications.

Go to your PinUPSystem folder.

Run the PinUP registration scripts as Administrator (commonly Register.bat, PuPRegister.bat, or similarly named registration files depending on your PinUP version).

Reboot Windows.

Launch PinUpPlayerTest.exe (if present) and verify PinUp Player starts correctly.

If it still fails, reinstall the latest PinUP Player / PinUP System over the existing installation and run the registration scripts again.
The key clue is the PinUpPlayer.PinDisplay ActiveX error. In most VPX cases, that points to a broken COM registration for PinUP Player rather than a GPU-specific problem.
