The AUX device is not very well documented. My understanding is that
it normally defaults to COM1.

Enable a bootlog by hitting F8 during bootup and then selecting logged
mode from the menu. This will create a bootlog.txt file in your root
directory.

Start the computer, tap the F8 key repeatedly until the startup menu
appears and select "Step by step confirmation". This should show you
what process is causing the problem.

Thanks for the replies, The problem "don't ask how" was cause by my
Ativirus and Firewall Programs. I deleted both in Safe Mode and it solve the
problem. Reinstalled the programs and all works great.
