So recently upgraded the PC hooked up to the my Addams family Atgames cabinet but i'm having issues getting the plunger to work. All the other buttons seem to work in Win11 except the plunger doesn't register. I didn't have this issue with the old PC which was running Win10. The plunger works great still out of OTG mode. Anyone else having this issue? help?

So I decided to upgrade my current pinball PC which is starting to show its age (Windows 10,older drives) I had an extra computer laying around so upgraded the PSU/GPU/SSDs and windows 11 since 10 is being discontinued later this year. Got it all setup , pinball popper front end and I thought everything was fine until my ATgames Legend Addams family edition cabinet decided to stop consistently detecting the playfield. The other two monitors would power on but the only way to get it to power up was to unplug the playfield and plug it back in. The only thing with that is it would cause the cabinet to restart and sometimes when I switched things over to the PC the playfield might be there. Plus this caused havoc on the screen layouts in vpx. I fought with this for hours trying to figure out what the hell is going on from swapping GPUs/CPUs/cables to every setting in Win11. I just don't know whats going on. When I did manage to get the tables to play there was a performance boost. If there is anyone who can suggest something or point me in the right direction it would be a great help.

Hello to all of you. I got a big Problem with my cabinet. I built my cabinet 4 years ago. The shaker is an original Stern shaker. The I/O Controller is a pinscape with power board and a chimeboard. The shaker is connected to the power board. In the DOF-Config the Shaker is reduced to 15/48. During the last 4 years I had no problems with my shaker. In january this year I updated the PC and the playfield to 120Hz 4k. Now I got an Intel I9 with a RTX 4090. Now I got the problem that windows sometimes gets freezed during playing visual pinball 10.8 RC3. Everything is freezed, I can´t do anything. Ctrl + Alt + Del is not working. I have to press the power button till the computer shuts down. When rebooting there is no error message. In the beginning this happend only once a week, now it happens more often. I found out that this is related to shaker activation. I can also provoke this when activating the shaker in the Pinscape config tool. The Stern shaker has a coil diode from the beginning. Now I red once again in the pinscape built guide bei mjrnet and included to inductors. But nothing changes. If I witch the shaker off in the DOF-Config, everything works fine (but I miss my shaker). I already changed the port of the power board where the shaker is connected. After that I had no problems for one week and thought this should be the problem. But now it is the same again. Any help would be appreciated
