True, but since it shows up, it is 'already' reserved. You guys either need to use another COM port that is not already reserved, or switch to using that physical COM port with an RS-232 cable. If his app is trying to make a USB connection look like COM1, you will fail.

This also may be difficult with all the damn Bluetooth reservations he has to try and use another COM port. Most apps that deal with COM ports will only use 1 through 4.
