Jim et al...

I have a PC which has just ONE serial port on the rear...but searching in
the BIOS I found it had another (which was disabled in the BIOS).  I turned
it on, then searched the board and found a 10 pin header, and the
appropriate cable in the junk box and it worked.  Your mileage may vary.
