Re: Reading the System Registry
I would agree with Cameron, you need to have a look into Manifests with Delphi, depending on the version you use the default manifests do not work properly from Vista and up.

Reading the System Registry
I'm writing a little program that includes a procedure to enumerate the com ports by reading from the registry at HKey_Local_Machine\Hardware\DeviceMap\SerialComm.
