You could try MS-kermit: http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/index.html

There are two versions you could try: MS-Kermit, which is a command line
program and runs under Windows versions before Win 95, and Kermit-95, a
graphical version that runs under all versions of Windows from Win 95
onward.

You can find a free trial version of Kermit 95 here:

Download MS-Kermit from here:

Kermit is a comms program, terminal emulator and file transfer agent,
but more importantly here, its immensely configurable in terms of serial
port settings. Because of this, its my first port of call when I'm
sorting out serial port problems. Its available for a huge range of
operating systems. I have copies for every OS I run.
