In the past, to get all of mine to work, I use a startup script (.bat file for you) with my command line options like this:
cgminer -S /dev/cu.usbserial-001013FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-002013FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-003013FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-004013FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-005013FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-006013FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-007413FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-007513FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-007613FA -S /dev/cu.usbserial-007713FA
I'm using cgminer 2.4.2 in osx, so yours in windows would probably look like:
cgminer -S COM4 -S COM5 -S COM6
I'll see if I can figure something out about using the conf file.

That is interesting, I didn't know you could use scan-serial in the config file. I just tried using it as well, and it's only noticing one of the BFLs too.
"scan-serial" : "COM3, COM4", etc does not work
yes please i will do that, but HOW?
Instead of scanning, why not just put in their ports? (e.g. using the -S switch when you start cgminer)
try looking in device manager to see where they are.

this does not work either
"scan-serial" : [ "bfl:COM3", "bfl:COM4", "bfl:COM5", "bfl:COM6" ],
"scan-serial" : [ "bfl:COM3", "bfl:COM4", "bfl:COM5", "bfl:COM6" ],
I still can't figure this out. windows 2008 r2 x64, cgminer 2.4.2
I'm using a config file, I have 4 bfls
Using "scan-serial" : "\\\\.\\COM4",
finds only 1 bfl
