correct com port for updating

hi all
I'm trying to update my technomate 1500 but the problem i have is the com port on the pc. The pc is new 2 weeks old and the only available com port is showing 15 pin connectors were i thought it had to be a 9 pin connect like the one on the rear of the technomate 1500.Any help here I’d be very grateful
regards, Paul

My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S

Most new computers dont have serial ports - its ancient technology. Either find an older computer with the required port, or see if you can get a usb - serial adaptor.

My System: Sky HD, TM6800HD, Manhattan Plaza ST550 and TM1500 CI+. 1.0m dish and 36v motor, Panasonic DVD HDD recorder and Panasonic video/DVD recorder. Sony G800 HD TV stand/surround system + Sony KDL40W2000. Infinity USB, Elvis, CAS1, CAS2.

I update my manhattan with a usb-serial adaptor as Analoguesat suggests.
