Where is HyperTerminal? John H 4/17/2007 7:16:02 PM I've looked for HyperTerminal in Accessories | Communications but was not able to find it. I tried installing it from my XP Pro 64 disk but that option was not available. Is HyperTerminal no longer a part of the OS. I've installed SP 2 and all the latest updates. Thanks in advance for any help. This is a very informative newsgroup. John H

Re: Where is HyperTerminal? Carlos 4/18/2007 9:16:04 PM Ok. I will write my post again because it has typing errors. I copied files from an Windows XP x64 installation to an Windows Vista x64 installation. Files copied from XP x64 were Hyprtrm.exe and htrn_jis.dll from Program Files\Windows NT and hypertrm.dll from Windows\system32 All three files were copied to Program Files\Windows NT in Vista Executed Hyprtrm.exe and the Hyperterminal initial setup screen showed up. I did not test it further.

Just what is it you/re needing to do with a program like HyperTerminal these days? I haven't used a terminal program in so long, I'm not sure I even remember how.

Re: Where is HyperTerminal? "Andrew Jarvis" <someone[ at ]somewhere> 4/19/2007 8:06:17 AM I often use hyperterminal for testing the links to RS-232 controlled digital cameras, motion controllers and x-ray controllers.

Re: Where is HyperTerminal? John 4/19/2007 2:54:00 PM In the past I've used HyperTerminal to telnet into routers and troubleshoot serial connections to various devices. Most recently I wanted to see if any of my old internal modems would respond in an XP 64 box and that's when I discovered that HyperTerminal was missing. I also found that it was not included in Server 2003 which lead me to ask this group about the missing application. I took Tom Ferguson's suggestion and downloaded the personal edition of HyperTerminal from Hilgraeve's site. The installation went fine except that it stalled on the last screen at 100% and did not automaticaly exit. I clicked out of it and tested the app and it appears to perform as expected. By the way I never was able to get one of my old modems to work so I purchased a US Robotics 5670 internal. The drivers installed OK but the bundled fax software did not, which will lead me to my next post. Thanks to everybody for their helpful replies. -- John "Andrew Jarvis" wrote: [Quoted Text] > I often use hyperterminal for testing the links to RS-232 controlled digital > cameras, motion controllers and x-ray controllers. > > "None" <none[ at ]any.where> wrote in message > news:%23236fRggHHA.2368[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > > > > Not that it's any of my business, mind you, but I'm curious.

Re: Where is HyperTerminal? "Rafael R. [Live Butterfly]" <"[myfirstname]"[ at ]fromvistatoxp.com> 4/19/2007 4:40:53 PM Search for and download PuttyTel. It's much better and just a small executable. - R John H wrote: [Quoted Text] > I've looked for HyperTerminal in Accessories | Communications but was not > able to find it.
