ehh? :confused: did you mean microtek?

Dint know M$ also made UPSsā€¦

How old is it? My 4 year old powersafe started behaving similarly till i changed the battery.

Its microtek not microsoft :face_with_tongue:

you surely mean microTEK.

and you UPS battery is prolly on its last legs(judging by your config and assuming that you got the ups when you got that system).

the only way out for you is to get the battery replaced

WTH..Microsoft Heritage??:rofl: ..seriously is that exactly what the label says?

And the backup time is ā€œridiculousā€ because of all the high end hardware of yours.:rofl:

Alrite..enough :face_with_tongue: ..on a serious note, just get the UPSā€™s battery replaced if its more than 1 year old.

Open the UPS, plug the battery out

Go to a local store and get a replacement battery

Plug the battery in and you are set
