in vista ultimate, when system boots, and i look at taskmanager, i see that
mainserve (the battery software) is using 60% of cpu cycles and 30 %of memory
can't figure out why i find myself shutting off the connection between the
battery and the system to reduce cpu load ..running vista ultimate, 1.6 ghz
athalon, 1.5 gig memory (help)
 
Driver issue? Did you install software or did Vista ask to find a driver?
Make/model of UPS?


I doubt 3rd party is needed, at least with APC and probably most more
popular brands.
 
For Vista a vender supplied driver/application is often required if the
interface is Serial, Vista dropped Serial UPS support.

we're talking about an apc ups xs1200 with (vista)drivers signed by ms..usb
cable connection
 
You could try the open source APC drivers http://www.apcupsd.org/

I find they work much better than the APC supplied ones and support a serial
UPS on 32bit and 64bit Vista
