Could be due to **many** things. The most common of which is you need to patch the DLL for your game with `Force Audio Output Mode` set to `WASAPI` or `ASIO`.
If you're having performance issues of some kind, spice2x's [PC optimization](https://github.com/spice2x/spice2x.github.io/wiki/PC-optimization) guide is worth looking at.
If none of that works, your PC probably isn't good enough to run the game, sorry.

### Unable to login / Eamuse error / Network error
!!! tip ""
Get the proper Asphyxia plugin from our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/cZRUmEPK78) in the #iidx channel > Resources post.
Make sure you didn't enable `-smartea` in spicecfg's options.
If you're getting too many `Fast`, increase your offset `(+)`.
If you're getting too many `Slow`, decrease your offset `(-)`.

### My inputs aren't working / I can't get past error messages!
!!! tip ""
If **none** of your inputs are working, try updating [spice2x](https://spice2x.github.io/), you can also try using the beta versions if the stable releases don't work for you.

### My game audio is super quiet!
!!! tip ""
When using `TDJ mode` the audio is very quiet by default. To mitigate this, you can use the `Increase Game Volume` patch.
---
### When I run the game all other audio is gone!
!!! tip ""
IIDX uses [WASAPI exclusive mode](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/coreaudio/exclusive-mode-streams) for audio to get better audio latency.
Unlike former versions of the games which used [DirectSound](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DirectSound).
