Connection problems

Just upgraded my astro laptop from a 7 year old running Windows 8.1 to lastest generation i7 Windows 10. Really enjoying the experience, however...

The new machine has only 2 Thunderbolt 4 ports and 1 USB 3 type A, so I'm connecting a USB hub for the photography peripherals. My camera and guider are recognised directly in NINA and connected easily, but the mount (Astro-Physics GTO V2) and focus motor (FocusLynx focus motor) drivers both have ASCOM interfaces and both seem to want to use com port 3. Connect the mount and then see the attached message for the focuser.

I'm pretty much only a couple of steps above incompetent when it comes to Windows (long time mac user) so if you can help me it would need to be spelled out in baby steps. It would be quite useful to be able to both focus and control the scope mount. Any help greatly appreciated.
