You could use one of these:

Genius TVGO Stand Alone TV Box

Has lots of inputs (incl VGA) and outputs to Video. I have one you can
try, have used it for PC to TV as well as video to VGA - price is around
$100 and it works well.

Does your computer have DVI output or only analog? You can get
inexpensive DVI to HDMI adapters -no conversion needed, just different
connectors..

  Hi All

  This is off the general robotics topic but I'm looking for advice
about connecting a projector to a computer via S-video.

  I have a JVC D-ILA projector that does not have a VGA input therefore
we have to use S-video to connect it to a computer (HDMI = $$).  When I
connect a computer (I've tried multiple units, laptops & pc) the
projected image is blurry. The projector works wonderfully with DVD and
other home theatre inputs.  So far  I've adjusted the focus, reduced the
distance between the computer and projector and played around with
graphics card settings and nothing improves the situation.

  I've run out of ideas so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Cheers
