If you're adventurous you could also try making a VGA to SCART adapter, but those are very unlikely to work.

< has a Dell Latitude D600 laptop with Windows Embedded POSReady 2009. It has an S-Video-like connector on the back, but there seem to be 7 pins. I hate proprietary pinouts.
< thinks it's one of those ports that can be broken out to give both S-Video and YPbPr with an adapter. Those are quite common, you can just plug an S-Video cable directly into it anyway.

< has already tried plugging an S-Video cable in it. It didn’t work; it’s a proprietary pinout.
Silly me, I’m wrong. < hasn’t set up the TV correctly in the first place!

< remembers reading a tragicomic story about someone who tried to replace an ATX power supply in a Dell machine from around the turn of the century, what a stupid company they were then!

Screw proprietary pinouts!!
< is trying to find a standard S-Video cable to see if it’ll work.
Great. <’s CRT doesn’t have an S-Video input.
