If you don't have DVI or VGA, looks like your stuck with S-Video.

You can drop down with connections(IE DVI to SVHS) but you can't go back up and magically gain quality. These connections display in totally different ways, hence the fuzzy look. There's not much you can do with the TV-Out wother than disable the flicker filter and use it to play videos or something.
