Do post your complete PC config to understand the load. Also, mention if there are any other peripherals connected to your UPS.

Ignore battery indicator and just check how much time it gives actual backup. It should give you more than 30 mins of backup as your config is less power hungry.
thank u for reply ups now giving me 50 min of backup . its going smoothly now dnt knw what happen suddenly .
but do i still perform check from apc technician ? my ups is under 1 month and policy of their is suxxxxxx . if ups is under 1 month they replace with new ups and after 1 month they replace with refurbished ups wtf . i heard lots of complaints abt refurbished ups . if i knw abt this earlier i never think of buying apc ups .
update , battery is draining fast .showing 45 min but its drain half in just 15 min and now on 11 min. is it supposed to give u 45 min if its showing tht time?

maybe the battery level indicator is faulty, check your actual backup time and report to APC if indicator shows fault time.
k i will do tht today and ill post the results . thnks
k just done test . battery totally discharged after just 21 min . even though its showing 45 min . and battery is fully charged .when its reached to 46% battery drain dramatically to 2 % just 1 min .
dnt knw whats happening .
they replaced ups . older ups is actually faulty , hope new works well.
