Com1 already in use

Windows XP Pro.
Modem connected on the serial port.
Very often when I try to use the modem I get
"Com1 already in use"
Of course I have no other devices connected to com1, i.e. the IRQ is
assigned only to Com1.

I have already found a turnaround:
I uninstall the com1 , restart Windows and re install Com1.

Of course I don't like it.
Any idea to solve in a better way ?
Thanks
Manlio
