Is the Java Communications API Compatible with WinXP, WinModem?

I'm trying to use the Communications API, but no matter what I do, it always detects 0 ports.

I am running Windows XP and have a WinModem. Does anyone know if the Comm API is compatible with the combination of JDK1.4.2/WinXP/WinModem?

Under my device manager it lists no COM ports, so it seems that it may not be able to detect any ports because of this? WinModems are always a bit strange.

Thanks
