Com 3 Access Denied

Frank MacDonell
I am setting up a new laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium along
with HRD (latest version) and system works fine.........at first.
However if I close the top and come back later to re-access I get an
error message that COM3 access is denied. But...........If I shut down
and my computer and start up again I am back in business. I have also
checked latest drivers for the USB connection. Any ideas?  Thanks so
much in advance!!!

Re: Com 3 Access Denied

Guy, K2AV
See if KB978258 applies to Vista.  Also in control panel/power options
turn off suspending USB ports when sleeping. This may be not be in the
same place as it is in Win 7.
