Do you mean no SERIAL port rather than no USB port on the new computer?
If so, a cable alone won't do it.

Use the Ethernet ports if both computers have one.
If not one path would be to remove the hard drive(s) from the first computer
and install it as an additonal drive on the new computer. Then just copy
the data you want from the old dirve to the drive in the new new drive.
