You would need something like this then.
Amazon.com: EFORCITY VGA to S-Video / RCA Adaptor: Electronics
Walmart doesn't sell it. Its a VGA (plug into laptop) to s-video & rca plug (tv side).
This only allows the video from the laptop to the tv. Only place I know of where this can be found is online. Best Buy would cost alot more than ordering one online. Unless you have a Fry's electronics or CompUSA near you. These would still cost more than online though.
You would also need to make sure the laptop will allow tv output.

With the audio, you would have to use the headphone rca plug on the laptop for sound. You could get a cable with the 1/8 rca plug on one end and the rca plugs on the other (plug the rca plugs into the audio input on the tv).
This can usually be found @ Walmart or Radio Shack.
