This is your problem:

> Conflict I/O POrts:2F8

The PC is detecting two devices that are both trying to use the COM2 port
address. Disable or remove one and the error will go away.

You'll need to check your motherboard or system reference manual (or
website, whichever applies). The process for disabling hardware is
different from one motherboard/system to another.

As I said just one minute before your reply ... :-)
