I also had found that if the K3 RS232 speed don't match the one set at the software,it will not connect,both have to be the same,I use 4800 on mine. AD4C

Maybe you could try disabling any other com ports through device manager and then try to start the K3 utility. If it is connecting to another com port, once you open the utility and set it to the correct com port and have it working you can enable the other com ports again and all should be fine.
