Hey. I downloaded the new update (1.3.0) and the fix, becuase it didn't work. But... Everything works fine now, unless the CPU. It's always red, and after some time everything starts to lag. I've tried switching the USB cable, and put it in another port, but nothing help. Here is my computer specs:
Processor: AMD E1-2500 APU with Radeon HD Graphics 1,40 GHz
RAM: 8,00 GB
64-bit operationsystem

Hope there is anything to do =)

You do know that AMD chips are not supported?

Yea, i know it don't support it 100%, but it still work. I believe in that there is something to do. =P

You are not the only one.

I have a AMD E450 1.7GHz 8GB RAM and still it lags.

Remember that the minimum requirements to run SERATO DJ is
32 bit: Intel 2.0 Ghz Core 2 Duo
64 bit: Intel 2.4 Ghz Core 2 Duo <<<== Thats what you need for your OS!

You are right, it works but it does not run 100% as what you expect.

It has worked before without lag, so i still believe in that. =P (Damn you Ghz!) xD

No one was arguing with you that it does not work. Like I said, you need 2.4GHz on your laptop so that SERATO will run 100% without any hiccups/lags. Thats why they call it 'MINIMUM SPECIFICATION'.

If you believe that 1.7GHz is bigger than 2.4GHz (or better yet 2.0GHz), .... I don't know what to say.

If you believe that 1.4GHz (your computer) is bigger than 2.4GHz (or better yet 2.0GHz), .... I don't know what to say.

Hi Feelax,

I would suggest trying an older version like 1.2.1, as this is less cpu intensive, until you can get up to min specs.
