I have a program that communicates with a device via COM1 or COM2 (user's choice).

Communications on COM1 and COM2 work fine under the following operating systems:

Win9x
WinNT 4.0 WS and Server
Win2K

When I communicate using COM1 using Windows XP, no problem. But on COM2, it doesn't work!!!

I've manually set COM2 to the desired settings (9600, 8,N,1), but to no avail.

Anyone have any ideas???
