Here is a way how to enable hyper terminal in Windows 7, free.
1. From Windows XP copy:
* hypertrm.exe from C:\Program Files\Windows NT\
* hypertrm.dll from C:\Windows\System32\
1. From Windows XP copy:
* hypertrm.exe from C:\Program Files\Windows NT\
* hypertrm.dll from C:\Windows\System32\
*hypertrm.chm from C:\Windows\Help\
to the same folder location in Windows 7.
2. Create a shortcut for HyperTerminal on the Desktop if you wish and run the application.
3. You will be prompted to make HyperTerminal your default Telnet program. Tick Don't ask me this question again and Click No. Why No? Well, after I've configured the routers, I'll be using SSH for remote administration.
4. You will be prompted this time to fill up the location information form. Click Cancel and click Yes to confirm the action then click OK to dismiss the matter.
5. Type your desired connection name in the Name field (I usually use console) and click OK.
6. You will encounter steps 3 and 4 again then you will be presented with the Connect To dialog. Under Connect using, select from the list the correct com port
to use (eg., COM7 ) and click OK.
7. You will be presented next with the HyperTerminal Properies dialog. Click Restore Defaults and click OK.

A quick side note if you have problems getting your USB to Serial connection working under Windows 7 try getting drivers from http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/downloads.asp?ID=31. The PL2303_Prolific_DriverInstaller_v10518.zip worked great for me.
