Which driver did you install? Are you connecting to the correct COM port?

And why are suddenly several people from what looks like the same area asking literally the same question? You only get slower answers when you start asking duplicate questions.

the one given here https://mbed.org/handbook/SerialPC... the terimal was set accordingly stated here

Accordingly stated where? I don't have Hyperterminal, but at least if you use Teraterm the correct com port is labeled "mbed".

Erik- i have windows xp and hyper terimal is already installed in there.. when i installed the windows driver...i could see the com port labelled as "mbed" (com 3) in driver manager.. now after dumping the program 

#include "mbed.h"
 Serial device(p9, p10);  // tx, rx
 int main() {
 device.baud(9600);
 device.printf("Hello World\n");
}

and completing all the connection(null modem connection with max232 and also used IC 7805 (voltage regulator for max232 as a battery of 9v is being used as a power supply)) when i use the hyperterminal to see the output "hello world" i m not able to get it... i have been doing this from the last 3 days but failed in every attempt... i dont know what is going wrong here... plz do help..

PC Serial is intended for communication via the integrated USB <> Serial bridge! Not via a seperate RS232 port. That is also possible, but that will be a different com port (and larger chance on errors).

Replace p9 and p10 by USBTX and USBRX. If you then have your mbed plugged in your PC via the USB cable, you should again have the com port labelled mbed, and that one should receive the messages.
