Hi Dani! I had the same problem, lots of devices wanted serial ports and only one on my main computer! I brought a VSCOM 4 x serial port adaptor that plugs into a spare USB port. Immediately the computer (under XP) installed it and I now have 5 serial ports. The additional 4 serial ports are used for the radios (Icom IC746 ProII & Icom IC9100), telenet and morse decoder. It was simple Plug and Play!
XP named these 4 extra ports as COM Ports 3, 4 5 & 6. I have noticed that some hardware/software only accepts COM ports 1 through 4. so it was a matter of juggling around hardware/software that would accept the correct port numbers. This VSCOM adaptor is very good, I couldn?t source it in UK but found a friendly supplier in the United States who shipped it over to me. Now they have European distributor, try this link: http://www.vscom.de/dc4.htm Good luck!!! 73's De Tony G8DQZ Kind Regards ? ? Tony Lord LFP (UK) Ltd.
