lol no you can't without a converter because:

1. vga sync (HV/S) works at 31khz

2. s-video has separate luma & chroma, and two grounds. (standard S-VIDEO, 4 pins). those signals have more data packed and need to be separated, RGB receives pure analog signals through Red, Green and Blue and those still require some signal "rectifier" so it'll give 31khz or image would go out-of-sync depending on the device.

S-video was meant to SD televisions, if your TV supports S-video just get a S-video male to female cable

 

I don't know how it worked but i used to do this with a single tiny cable +- 10 years ago and it worked fine. So i dont see how it would not work for you.

 

Yes i am sure. I still have the cable. PM me your address i'll dig it from my stuff and send it to you if you want.

 

If I understand, you are trying to connect a PC graphics card to a VGA monitor, but you want to do it via S-Video. This makes no sense. Are there no other working video outputs on the card? No DVI? There has to be a better solution to your problem, unless this is just for kicks. Trying to display a computer output, especially anything with text, over S-Video is going to look awful, no matter what you do.

 

LOL that's fine I went to Best Buy just to check out the Macs and admire hardware I'll never get and I found a great deal on a nice graphics card it's a Galaxy MDT GeForce GT 520
1 GB of DDR3 and a 810 MHz Core Clock on clearence for $45.99 and it uses DVI and I'll just use a DVI to VGA Adapter for that anyway luckily I didn't spend much on the graphics card that has a S-Video ($10).

 

If it's not for gaming, you don't need a graphics card at all.

And they would try to sell you a cheap GPU because cheaper ones generally draw less power, and they get less people complaining that their computer is shutting down.

 

It's for Multible Monitors So, what would I need to set up three monitors if I don't need a graphics card, a Dial-Up Modem?

 

I know but he implied that there's no other use for a graphics card except for gaming.

 

Long story short: S-Video and RCA are electrically similar (not identical but similar) so you can convert between those fairly easily with a small adapter, losing some image clarity and resolution in the process. But for VGA you'll need an active, powered converter.

I came into the same question myself earlier. I bought a pico pocket projector that only accepted RCA as an input. Thankfully my laptop has an S-video out so I can convert it to something the projector can use, but if I only had the VGA out? I'd need a powered converter.
