You can change the pinout of the connector by yourself. Disassembly it
and use a soldering iron to change the connection. It's a very easy
task. The only difficulty is to know how is the rigth connection to your
board, but maybe a guy from this discussion list who haves a similar
board can help you.
The connection of my DB9 is:
ribbon cable db9
-----------------------------
wire 1 pin 1
wire 2 pin 6
wire 3 pin 2
wire 4 pin 7
wire 5 pin 3
wire 6 pin 8
wire 7 pin 4
wire 8 pin 9
wire 9 pin 5
But it's an old Pentium 133 and i think this one is equal to your old
connector.
Hope its help,
Ubiratan
