It is used to connect your laptop to your television. You will need a S-Video cable.
Connect the laptop to the TV with this cable and then startup the laptop.

S-Video is a port used to connect a television. This enables you to use your TV as the monitor. Generally, nobody does this, because your TV has a lot worse resolution, and the picture will be pretty bad.
But it can be useful for watching a family slide show, or something.

I allows you to send the display (picture) of the laptop out to a HD TV, a camcorder, etc. So you can use the laptop like a DVD player, or create movies and then record them on a VCR or camcorder tape.

This is an express video port used to pump out video to Televisions and projectors.
It transmits a faster, better quality data stream than USB.

To hook up to a TV or VCR, I suppose. Or to hook another item with S-video to it. Depends if it's an input connection to hook something to your laptop or output to hook it up to something else.
