 I have the exact same board and also had a non-working serial port.
 
 However, convinced that my bad luck with serial ports was the culprit,
 I'm pretty sure I ended up frying the onboard I/O chip.
 That's my belief mostly because at the same time (I did "the stuff" that
 I did) the PS/2 keyboard input also stopped working.
 
 I'd like to help in debugging this issue, even if I can't be sure the
 serial port works. The SuperIO chip is a Fintek F71869A and it is fully
 documented:
