- See Connecting a serial cable to a Xenta 5/7/9xx controller for proper cable connection and hyperterminal settings if needed.
Alternatively, extract the two files from any XP installation and copy them to the new Windows OS.

- hypertrm.dll default installation is in C:\Windows\System32.
Alternatively, from a Windows XP CD, both files reside in the i386 directory.
