Parallels 11 - WindowsXp - USB problem

[DianaW]

Hi,
Just downloaded the newest version of Parallels Desktop for Mac.
I was running running version 8 with windowsxp and software that communicates with a serial device connected via
serial to usb. But now this configuration does not run anymore, I keep getting the message that COM3 and COM4 are not available.

Please advice.....

thx
