As far as I can tell you will need more than just a lead. If this
projector has no VGA connection (and description here

pagetypeid=2&articleid=14417&subsectionid=761&subsubsectionid=681
certainly doesn't mention one) then you will need a video card in the
PC that has S-video out.

I believe there are some devices around that convert VGA to s-video
or composite, but they are again more than a simple cable and
probably no cheaper than getting a new video card.
