[MOVED] Configure USB to Com ports

Mr_Sheepdog

I use an obd system in my work, on windows, able to configure a usb to a com port, for the obd software, works in Xp, but running the prog in wine, does not see the port, says port is in use on all the specific ports available, so unable to use, in winxp I use it as com4. So how can I configure the ports in Zorin, nothing in the system settings that I can find. Would like to get away from using any windows, but until I can configure th ports stuck on this one. Any can tell me how to change settings for the ports. Thanks

Hi Thanks for the welcome.
Sorry for putting in wrong section.
Unfortunately the info in link did not work, so still looking, program still says, 'port already in use. interface Not found'
