Hi Gowri!

A couple of thoughts.  When it is connected with Hyperterminal, look into
the hyperterinal com port settings.  The baud rate, data bits, parity, stop
bits, hardware flow control, and software flow control settings.  In minicom
these appear to be under ^A P for the baud rate, stop bits. and parity - and
a ^A O selecting Serial Port Setup to set the hardware and software flow
control.

Good hunting!
