I'm running Win7/64.

Dick D. has provided me with a new version of the K3 utility for testing
that does NOT fault on my machine when I change the COM port FROM an invalid
or unconnected port.  This situation can arise after changing the machine
configuration or the port that one is using to talk to the K3.  The default
COM port, which may no longer be valid, is picked up from the registry.

Nothing specific was identified as being causative, but the exception is no
longer thrown under those conditions.

Thank to Dick for the help.
