I'm having almost the same trouble. As soon as the power goes off, my UPS starts squealing like a pig as if it has completely drained its power and shuts down within 5 seconds or so. It is not able to handle my PSU. My UPS is a Microtek 1KVA model and PSU is Corsair TX750W. So as a result I need u guys to tell me a good PURE SINE WAVE UPS, preferably before Wednesday in the range of 5-7K, that can handle my system and give backup of atleast 10 mins. Config is below:
- Intel C2D E8400 (stock clock @ stock HSF)
- ASUS P5QC
- Patriot 2x2GB DDR2 800MHz RAM
- MSI HD4850
- WD 640GB AACS + Seagate 400GB + Seagate 160GB
Besides the system my Creative T6060 speakers and my LCD TV, which I use as display, is also connected to the UPS. Please help me guys as power cuts are frequent here and last night when power came back and I rebooted, Check Disk ran automatically to correct the system partition as it had developed few bad areas due to this sudden shutdown. I'm very afraid about my drives's security, please help me out brothers!
