I can't start the "Uninterruptible Power Supply" service in XP Pro
sp2; I get:
"Could not start the Uninterruptible Power Supply service on Local
Computer. Error 2481: The UPS service is not configured correctly."


(I'm trying to start this service so the UPS tab will display in Power
Options so I can get my laptop to communicate with my APC Smart-UPS v/
s 650 on COM4 via a Keyspan USB Serial Adaptor.)

please help, thanks!!!

I would start by contacting APC and tell them about your problem. It may be
something minor you are overlooking or that APC uses a special adaptor.

You will need to go to their website and download their APC center, software
driver, it doesn't come with the UPS. follow the instructions for install
explicitly
