Need serial port, any recommendations?

[GreyHawX]

I need a serial port for work reasons, I previously bought a prolific usb to serial adapter but it didn't work in windows 8. I don't care if its an adapter or an expansion card just as long as it works on windows 8. Any suggestions?

Here's one: http://uk.startech.com/Cards-Adapters/Serial-Cards-Adapters/1-Port-Low-Profile-Native-PCI-Express-Serial-Card-with-16950~PEX1S952LP

If you look under the "Technical Specifications" tab, you'll see that Windows 8 is supported.
