Try using TeraTerm instead of HyperTerminal: its much more forgiving 
(see numerous past posts on the subject).  In particular HyperTerminal 
has a tendency to require the modem control signals even when you tell 
it to ignore them.

Have you checked that you are seeing the correct voltages on the PIC's 
TX line and the MAX232 TX?  You can do this by wobbling the port not 
just sending a character.  That way you can be sure that the hardware 
path is correct before worrying about serial communication.  Have you 
checked that the lead you are using to the PC is correct?

The PIC's serial port is only single buffered: you can only put a single 
character into it each time TXIF is set.

Ditto for receive.

As others have pointed out you need to wait for TXIF to become set.

The basic port configuration looks correct so I'd look at your hardware. 
  You might want to set TX9 and RX9 to zero to ensure that you are 
dealing with 8 bit data.

Seems you commented out interrupt routines (ISRs); why did you do that? To 
make a joke?

You need an interupt driven, buffered, handshaking system to get
performance. Email me for some code, it's not for a pic but it's
easily modified, more for instruction as to what to do and how to do
it.

There is no test here to make sure the data has left before you shove 
the next value in.  Look at the data sheet for the transmit complete 
flag.  The start of the code looks like you were playing with the UART 
interrupts at one point or another, but that's not going to help you 
with the above code.

Can you communicate with other serial devices with hyperterminal?

Are you getting anything out of the max232 on your board?

Is your serial cable wired the way you think it is?

Hai to all, 

Iam trying to communicate from pic 16f877a to the pc's hyperterminal at
9600 baud rate. Iam posting my code for this. 
Iam able to simulate with mplab but I could not implement with hardware. I
checked for max232, rs232. They seem to be working perfect. But iam not
getting the data through hyperterminal comm port. 

My crystal oscillator is 8mhz.
