[Dx4win] Need Help

[Kostas SV1DPI]

May I suppose that you have a usb to serial com? Maybe you unplugged the 
usb cable and you plug it to a different usb port. This will give you a 
different com port. Do a right click to computer and select management.
Again management or something similar (sorry my windows are in Greek) 
and see the com ports. See what com ports your computer has. If com 5 is 
not an option anymore, note what other ports you have and try these 
ports in dx4win. All these in case you have a usb to serial cable
