COM port enumeration

I've got a MB with 2 COM ports - call them A and B. These ports are always
enumerated the same way: A=COM1, B=COM2. Is there an easy way to reverse
that assignment? If A fails, it would be REALLY nice to use B=COM1 instead
of replacing the MB.

A registry hack, perhaps?

Thanks for any tips.

In the Device Handler you can usually reconfig the Comports.

Sorry: does "Device Handler" mean "Device Manager"?

If so, then that's a problem, because my appliance does not have DM in it.

Thanks,
