I understood.
Serato DJ Pro, Serato DJ Lite & Serato Studio all require a CPU that supports the AVX instruction set, and will not install if your computer contains an older CPU without this feature.
So you need to buy a better CPU for your computer - that's the solution
The program won't work on your current CPU

Customer Replay

Ok and do you know about how much a CPU will run

author

You mean what CPU you need to buy?

Customer Replay

Yes

author

When choosing a CPU, it is important to consider your specific needs and budget. However, if you are looking to use Serato DJ Pro, Serato DJ Lite These are the basic and most popular CPU

Customer Replay

Thank you so much
