By Regina Paul

  • Overview

    If you have a computer and high speed Internet then you've probably been thinking about how you can watch TV on your computer. There are thousands of free television channels available that you can watch with a high speed Internet connection. There is a free software program that will allow you to watch over 2,000 channels on your computer called TVPC Elite.

    • Step 1

      Go to http://tvpc-elite.com/ and sign up for the TVPC Elite software.

    • Step 2

      Check your email for a message from TV Elite and confirm your request for more information. When you confirm your request you will be taken to a download page for the product. It will also send you an email with the link as well.

    • Step 3

      Download the zip file with the TVPC Elite software.

    • Step 4

      Install a copy of Windows Microsoft Installer 3.1 if you don't already have it on your computer. Computers purchased before 2005 will need to download this from the Microsoft website and install it before installing TVPC Elite.

    • Step 5

      Download and install the latest version of Microsoft Windows Media Player.

    • Step 6

      Download and install the latest version of Real Player.

    • Step 7

      Download and install the latest version of Quicktime.

    • Step 8

      Open the zip file containing your TV on PC software and extract it to your desktop. You can do this in Winzip by selecting the application and then clicking on the "Extract" button in the menu at the top. This will open another window, giving you the option of where you want to extract the software to.

    • Step 9

      Click on the icon for TV on PC and install the program. You now will have access to over 2,000 Internet television channels from around the world, which include everything from movies to sports channels.
    • Skill: Moderately Easy
    • Tip: If when you try to run the software you get a JIT or just-in-time debugging error, then you need to go to the Control Panel and Internet Options and Advanced and enable JIT compiler.
    • Warning:
    • There is no such thing as free satellite TV on your PC. There are a lot of websites offering this but you'll notice that none of them actually name any of the premium channels. Instead what they are really offering is what TV on PC offers and that is a software that accesses 2,000+ Internet TV channels that are accessible to anyone with an Internet connection for free.
