    Does anyone have Windows XP version of the Hyper Terminal? The digitizor link looks very similar to Windows version but it doesn't seem to work well with Serial port.

    Which version of Windows 7 do you have? If you have Professional or Ultimate, install Windows XP mode and it will have the hyperterminal files.

    Foxterm does a very good/viable job of terminal emulation.

    The time the OP has spent searching for the simple yet obsolete HyperTerm could have been spent learning a more current term emulator.

    His choice.
