20Mhz isn't the greatest xtal frequency to produce high baud rates compatible with your PC without error... see item 3 from my reply on this thread...

I always use DEFINE HSER_SPBRG instead of DEFINE HSER_BAUD. In some case, it appear to be more efficient

be sure of your DEFINE HSER_RCSTA and DEFINE HSER_TXSTA setting too.

It is possible that Hyperterminal interrogates your PC's USART... I have XP-Pro SP2 on two four-month old 3.2Ghz desktop machines and a year old 2GHz Laptop... neither desktop lets me set a value higher than 115kb (the highest displayed), yet on the laptop, it permits setting right up to 920kb.
