The TV I have its s-video does not work. So is there anyway to buy a connector for a s-video from the card to red/yellow/white connector on the back of the tv? If there is, is the quality horrible by going that route?

The card (if new) should have come with an S-Video->composite adapter. If it didn't, you should be able to order one from ATI (or get one from the card's manufacturer if it is an OEM board). Then you just change the setting in the drivers to choose which to output on the TV-out.

Quality is a bit worse, but both S-Video and composite are pretty damn bad.
