Have you tried using regular, "original", PuTTY?

Serial configuration is nearly self-explanatory (click the "Serial"
radio button, enter your serial port and speed; if you need to twiddle
any specific settings (bits, parity, flow control), click the "Serial"
node on the tree view to the left).


ExtraPuTTY seems neat though, I'll have to look into it. (Mostly
because ZMODEM.)


Cheers,
