Thanks so much... But the problem is that I do not understand what I need. I dont know what cables I need. I dont see ANYWHERE on my laptop to hook any extra cables to. I have 3 USB ports, The port my internet connection goes into and a Grey port next to that. I have a place to hook in headphones, and one for a mic.

Contrary to popular belief, I (typically) don't just make up things out of the blue. There's no way around needing an expensive scan converter to convert a VGA signal to an S-Video or composite signal. If you won't take my word for it, perhaps you will take the word of a company which sells connectivity products.
(Note: RCA and composite both refer to the same thing here: the 3 multi-colored connectors.)

The original poster has stated that their TV only has an S-Video input.
Right, but when was the last time you heard of a "Big screen HDTV" with ONLY an S-video input on the front?
Little point in having an HDTV without some sort of HD input, be it component, HDMI etc. My old-school 10 year old Wal-Mart special Magnavox standard def tube type tv had composite, S-video and antenna ins. The reason I asked for model number was to look up the TV and see if there were possibly some inputs that were unknown to the OP. Manufacturers have been known to hide inputs behind cleverly disguised doors or panels. I'd put money on there being more
