Tom,
Is this in any relation to Windows XP Embedded?
Anyhow for accessing USB devices look at the samples in DDK.
For accessing any COM port use CreateFile for obtaining handle to port.
And since opening initializing and read write to port is very easy trough standard Win32 functions you will non need any open source
code.
Also use http://groups.google.com/ for searching on these topics, I guess that many people discussed this already.
Regards,
Slobodan
