Unfortunately, the difference between S-Video and VGA signals is such that there can be no simple plug adapter. It takes a pretty complex device -- and yes, the resolution and quality will be limited.
You should also be aware that not all graphics cards are dual head (capable of driving two displays as separate). The idea was pioneered by a company called Matrox and only migrated to the higher end ATI and Nvidia cards 3-4 years ago. The S-video/TV output on single head cards is only capable of outputting the same image you'd see on the monitor connected to the primary (VGA) connector.
Overall, you would probably be better off buying an inexpensive second graphics card. Since you will only need 2D capability from it,
something like this would be just fine. It probably has to be a PCI card -- see what slots you have available.
