I dont have a SERIAL port please help...

[PhilM81]

as subject, just built a new computer with a v.expensive mboard and it doesnt have a serial port!

What can i do?

I believe this is a common-ish problem - if you do a search thru the threads I think it mentions people get a usb to serial converter lead - have a wee look on the Maplins web site?

USB to Twin Serial Ports > Maplin (http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=224904)
