Hperterminal + XP is it there?

[Greg Lazarchik]

I installed the Windows XP Home Edition. In my program files listing I
have accessories, communications, and Hyperterminal. But when you select
Hyperterminal it says empty.
I went to add/remove programs, windows components and under
communications I do not see hyperterminal. Is it no longer offered as
part of windows?
I also went tothe XP disk I have and selected add components and cant
see Hyperterminal. I do however see folks on the internet talking about
it and win 29999 and XP. iS IT NOW A SEPARATE PROGRAM UYOU HAVE TO BUY?
iS THERE ANY OTHER WAY TO ACCESS YOPUR MODEM DIRECTLY WITH ANOTHER
TERMINAL PROGRAM?

you can get a free version of hyperterm on the net, google for it.

it is better than the one included w/ xp, tho it is still "old".
works well tho.

look for www.Hilgraeve.com

There's no need to shout and get excited. I've never had a problem
installing Hyperterminal from the Windows Components, but maybe your
OEM (HP, Dell, whatever) didn't include it. Just go download the free
version from here:
