Com 2 for HP

[Pat]

I have a HP Pavilion 4533 and would like to add another 9 pin com port.
At this time it has a internal modem that does not work but it is assigned as com 2.I do not need the modem but don't know if I can get a board to add the com port? Com 1 seems to be on the mother board as well as the controler for the drives.
Thanks
Pat

There should be a block of pins on the motherboard in the vicinity of the I/O ports labeled Com2, that is where you would attach a cable that has the connector, and it would be attached to a piece of metal that would fit into an open slot, or ther could be a knock-out to attach the connector to...

I will have to remove the bays to gain access to it, I can see the cables but not where they attach to the mother board.
Thanks
