#21 Spec Ops: The Line Sound / Audio Fix – No sound or weak sound

For Windows 7 and Vista users:

First of all, update your sound card drivers. If doing that doesn’t clear up the problem, make sure you have volume set to max for Spec Ops: The Line in the volume mixer (click on the little speaker icon in the bottom-right of your screen in the system tray). If you’re in-game, just alt+tab out of the game and check if Spec Ops: The Line is set to max in the volume mixer.

Another tip you could try is to go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Sound > Communications Tab then select the “Do Nothing” radio button to permanently fix this issue.

Problem #22 Spec Ops: The Line Mouse Fix – Reverse / weird mouse acceleration problem

Problem #23 Spec Ops: The Line FPS Fix – Spec Ops: The Line Lags, freezes, or has poor FPS performance

Try these possible solutions:

  1. Usually you can prevent Spec Ops: The Line from lagging or freezing by disabling vsync and antialiasing on the Spec Ops: The Line’s exe file via the AMD Vision Engine Control Center (AMD/ATI) or Nvidia Control Panel (nVidia)
  2. Alternatively you can stop Spec Ops: The Line from lagging via your PC task manager. In Windows 7, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE and click on Task Manager, go to Processes, then right-click on Spec Ops: The Line’s respective exe file and set priority above normal or higher. You must do this every time you play the game.
  3. In addition, your anti-virus may be the problem here. There are certain anti-virus software that are not ideal for gaming so, check our Technical References page for some suggestions.
  4. If you’re still using Windows XP, upgrade to Windows 7. Honestly, a lot of users have attested this to be the fastest solution they’ve tried.
  5. For more advanced users, try enabling/forcing tripple buffering and V-sync using the D3DOverrider software. Check our Technical References page to download D3DOverrirder / RivaTuner.
  6. Finally make sure that your Internet connection is stable. This is a commonly overlooked problem especially for online modes / multiplayer games.

Problem #24 Spec Ops: The Line Crash Fix – Other possible causes of crashing

  1. Make sure you GPU is cool enough and not overheating. Spec Ops: The Line may at times use heavy GPU, so make sure you have good airflow, and that your card is running quietly. Try lowering the resolution or changing quality settings. Symptoms of an overheated card include the following: random crashes, random ‘glitches’ , FPS drastically drops down to 2 or 3 FPS, freezing, and locking up during graphically intensive moments.
  2. Make sure you have a decent power supply. If you have a decent graphics card, you need a power supply that can run it. 350 watts may not be enough to consistently run Spec Ops: The Line. A recommended power supply should have a minimum of 600 watts, with a direct connection to the GPU (no splitting and ‘sharing’ connections with other devices). Many times random crashes are due only to insufficient power supply.

Problem #25 Spec Ops: The Line – Cannot Install Spec Ops: The Line

Reinstall the game, but please ensure that you’ve fully uninstalled Spec Ops: The Line from your PC, before trying to install again. In some cases, you may have to manually delete the Spec Ops: The Line installation folder from the PC in case files remain after uninstalling.
