Any free nmea logging programs for modern Windows out there? I used to have a simple program that run under win nt 3.51 on an old laptop, but that machine has finally died. No more Hyperterminal and I only have USB ports on the replacement.

Hyperterminal still exists in Windows. Better to use a 'real' terminal program like TeraTerm (freeware). Hyperterminal will sometimes refuse to open a com port when data is coming in already.
As for the USB part: use a decent (aka not the cheapest) serial-USB converter.
