[OT] Com port assigment in Win XP

I've just installed (and re-installed several times with the same
results) a Bluetooth dongle on a Win XP machine and although the last
installed port shown is Com 4, the new Bluetooth serial ports get
installed as Com 30 and Com 31. These seem to be too high for some
programs to recognise (they only offer up to Com 15 etc). Is there
someway of changing these (there's nothing obvious that I can see and
Google doesn't help).

Regards,

Rob
