Your best bet would be to upgrade your video card on the PC with one that
has S-Video out but you'd need S-Video in on the LCD TV.

No, I don't think all that is necessary, as long as the TV has S-Video
in - and most do these days.

PC S-Video Out to TV S-Video In, and PC L/R Audio Out to TV L/R Audio
In, should work fine.
