I have an S-Video out on my nVidia graphics card. My 3-year-old Sony projection TV has an S-Video in and the red/white/yellow inputs.

What are my options here? What cable do I need?
 
Get yourself an S-Video cable to run the video over (higher quality). I don't know what kind of sound outputs your computer has, but at very least I assume it has onboard sound. Here's what I did with that situation:

I picked up a Y-splitter for the 1/8" line out on the computer. Pluged my computer speakers into one jack. In the other was a cable that converted the 1/8" jack to the Red/White left/right audio inputs on my TV.

That way I can use my computer speakers when I want, and TV audio when I want. (ps. make sure all the cables are stereo so you can preserve the left and right audio channels)
