Easiest solution is to capture to file and then view with a hex viewer (winhex or something similar). Hyperterm does get all 8 bits and also stores them to file, just can't display them well.

The windows hyper terminal makes it difficult to use since the data is in 7bit ASCII. I need to see all 8bits. Any free utilities like this out there?
