I am trying not to buy a new video card because the one i have is adequate, but it does not have any video out option. What can i do?

There are converters which convert a VGA signal to S-Video or Scart, but they usually result in a poor quality picture because just about every resolution is too high for a TV. I've not seen one made by a reputable manufacturer and you'll end up with sore eyes unless you're running an application in 320x240. So what I'm getting at is... don't buy one.
The other option would be to buy a more recent TV with proper support for VGA or DVI inputs which will display a native resolution.
Or.... buy a new graphics card.

Either find a VGA to whatever adapter or buy and extra video card for your tv

Depending on what you are looking to do you have a couple options...first...if you just want to make your television act as a monitor I'm sure you could find an adapter that would help you...try www.newegg.com. On the other hand if you are trying to watch TV programs with your computer hooked up to your television, you will need what is called a TV tuner card.(also available on newegg)
Good luck
