Having problem accessing Procurve 2510 using console

[cashqoo]

i am having problem as per subject with 2 new switches.2510-24 and 2510-48

i am using windows xp, hyper terminal, with usb-to-serial convertor.
Hyper terminal settings as follows:
-VT100
-9600
-no parity bit
-8 data bit
-1 stop bit
-Xon / Xoff control

the hyper terminal is not responding on pressing "enter". upon rebooting the switch, i can see some output, but the hyper terminal becomes not responding shortly after.
i cant even enter a command.

tried the following, still the same results.

are you sure is procurve 2510 switch ???

[cashqoo]

yes. both are 2510. the output posted earlier is from one of the switches.

i managed to access the switches via telnet (advice from other threads) by using a dhcp server to allow the switch to have an ip address first.

[cont from earlier reply]
even though i have set the baud rate, accessing through console still does not seems to work.

the configuration of the switch is attached.
