It is not going to work.

S-video is Luma/Chroma and perhaps you can translate to composite video. VGA is RGB. You need a color converter.

Plus even if it worked s-video (480i) would look terrible on a big plasma TV.

Go buy a new video card that has either digital DVI or HDMI output and you can display in HD!
