Serial com ports not recognised

[dsam]

Hi there,
I've just installed the trial version ofGirder 3.3.5. I haven't use it before and I try to understand how it works. I think it is a great piece of software, but I have a problem. I've loaded the Generic Serial Support 3.0.18 plugin but it does not recognise my Com ports. In Settings/Device drop down menu I have only No Port. What am i doing wrong? There is no other devices/drivers connected to the serial ports and I have 2 ports onboard and 2 on a PCI serial card. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks. :cry:

Can you check and make sure they are listed in the device page of the control panel?

Also, what version of Windows are you using?

I found the problem. I am using Win XP. I was trying Girder on my work computer and I wasn't logged as admin. Interesting! I installed Girder without beeing an admin, no problem with that, but the serial plugin works only if I am admin. Is the OS or the plugin?
Thanks.
