Hi reapo and welcome to Club Vaio.

You cannot go from VGA (which is a RGB output) to Composite or S-Video without a converter.

Try Google for 'VGA to TV Converter' - there are several available. Something like this will do the trick: -

This is the only way because graphics cards cannot be upgraded on laptop computers.
