What VESA resolution did you try using? Composite video (video that includes the luminance [brightness] and chromanance [color]) encoded on an NTSC or PAL is good to 640x480 at best. The S-video has the advantage that the two are at least delivered to the display separately.
Never-the-less, Composite or S-video will have bandwidth limitations that make them unsuitable for driving modern, high def TVs.
You really need to find a DVI, HDMI, or at least RGB (component) solution.
