Internal 9-pin serial cable problems

I have a quick question, I hope someone can help. Are the serial cables which attach to the motherboard matched to particular types of motherboards IE: are they universal. I have a motherboard (FX Chipset running an old pentium 100), but I can only find one serial cable to connect to the motherboard. I know that both com1 and com2 work on the board, as I can swap the known working cable to each port on the board, and it works. I have tried over 30 different DB9 cables, but can't find another one to work. Interested to know if anyone has ever come across this problems. Thanks Andrew…
