I've just installed a dual serial port card into my PC however despite all
my efforts to remove the previously installed virtual USB ports the software
insisted on creating them as Com 9 and 10. Windows insists com 2 - 8 are in
use (only com 1 and 8 actually are) so reasigning the ports doesn't work.
Now for the question Dx4Win only shows com 1 - 8 or at least it does in my
setup so how do I get it to show com9 and 10 in the drop down list box so I
can select them? Do I add them to portmap or is this only for parallel
ports?
I think you can right-click on My Computer and select Properties. Click
on the Hardware tab, then the Device Manager button and you'll see your
hardware, including Ports (COM & LPT). Click the "+" to expand the
list, then right-click on the port you want to change and select
Properties. The Resources tab should allow you to change the port
number to a lower (unused) one.
