Every few years I go on a nostalgia trip and look up videos from my favourite tv channel as an early teen, [.tv], and here I find Kate's own RUclips channel. I love the 90's/early 2000's feel to everything in this video. Everything from the oddly relaxing intro music to the now completely obsolete solutions just sends me back to a simpler time. Hope you're well Kate, we never met but you were actually a big influence on me getting into tech and the games industry as an adult, so thanks!
In case Thomas is still having problems with his Soundblaster card, Nigel forgot to mention that there are several Autoexec files in Windows95 onwards, and the one that is loaded depends on whether you're in DOS mode or Windows mode. Or something. Wow, 11 years ago! I can't believe Sky could justify having a Computer Channel 11 years ago and can't now when they have so much more bandwidth. Was it killed off by podcasting? Anyone remember The Net? RUclips "The Net - Creating a Home Page"
Kate was 31/32 here, and looks ten years younger. This year she turns 46, and looks 20 years younger! This is a golden era on British TV for women in their forties: Kate, Susanna Reid, Julia Bradbury, Victoria Coren-Mitchell, Claudia Winkleman, Tess Daly, and loads more.
CWE asked the classic question about wanting games late and working or early but broken, this was back in 2000. I wonder what the outcome was for that question since those forums are now gone. Seems to have not gone in the right direction since most games are released broken and often get delayed at the same time. I'm not pointing fingers at games like The Evil Within here but basically I'm pointing fingers at The Evil Within.
I never understood the reasoning why sky got rid of dot TV when it was literally becoming more relevant than ever, and when technology was really taking off and becoming relevent ! Nothing on TV even replaced this kind of thing unfortunately.
I never understood the reasoning behind a lot of executives in TV land's decisions. TV 10 -30 years ago was pretty amazing in its scope. Now TV is limited, homogenised crap now. Bring back 4 Later. 4 Later 2.0 could be just the ticket when budgets matter now more than ever.
Started watching this before i read the description. I was thinking WTF is this? A retro computing show. Kate has not changed much in 12 years as well, thats what threw me. So Kate whats the secret? Good genetics or botox!
I remember this fondly. Every very other answer was "check the Microsoft Knowledge Base" or "update the drivers", lol.
I only remember the computer channel as I was a 17 year old at the time and Kate was the presenter and she was hot as hell. She still is.
Ohhh god I was on the phone for one of these at about age 10 asking Kate why Discworld wouldn't run properly on my 486. I'd love to find that episode!
nostalgia personified! I demand this show and channel is reinstated.. Plus Kates a hottie :p
I got Sky TV just to watch CWE then it was withdrawn within months of my subscription. Oh the pain!!!

I used to love .tv, and particularly CwE. Had a bit of a crush on Kate at the time, too. 20yrs ago now, maybe slightly more. Bloody hell.

She is 51 now and looks faded.. like all of us that age
@@laptopsorted You realise this is HER channel right? She looks amazing now as she ever did.
Nigel is a hoot. Siouxsie and the Banshees lol
i used to love this.
The presenter reminds me of Colin Hunt, from The Fast Show for some reason

It's like TBBT without the humour.
