Hello...
Just purchased a APC Back UPS XS 1500VA (BX1500G) Unit from bestbuy this week and I am wondering where I can download the powerchute for windows 7 home premium Edition (32 Bit version of windows 7) ?
Here is a link to the unit on the bestbuy site:

Thank you....Chris in Massachusetts USA

Chris,
I am glad you were able to install the PCPE software. The UPS runtime is correct. Click here to view the BX1300G runtime at full load and half load.
The Advantages of this model are:
* Upgraded LCD Displays.
* Automatic Voltage Regulator Boost and Trim
* Up-To-Date Styling
* Power-saving AVR Bypass
* Power-saving Master/Controlled Outlets
The Power-Saving Master/Controlled outlets feature is used to Conserve Energy. Please read the UPS user manuals on how to use the Master Controlled technology.
Let us know if you have any question. Happy Thanksgiving day!!
:)

Chris,
APC Power Chute Personal Edition Software version 2.2 supports Windows 7 OS which can be used to monitor the UPS and shutdown your Computer gracefully in the event of power failure. Click here to download the PCPE version 2.2 for Windows 7 OS.
I hope that this helps.

Hello Techie...
Thanks for that link. I installed it and have it working now...on the windows 7 Machine here.
see screenshot attachment picture of Current Status
I currently have My PC Tower, which has a 400watt PSU inside it, along with My 19 Inch Flat Screen Monitor, My Comcast Cable Modem and also My Linksys Router. The current status tells me I have about 128 watts load on bateery backup with these 4 things connected to the unit.
On the unit itself, it shows that I have about 42 minutes of time on the LCD Screen..if the power was to go out.
Do these seem like they are correct?
When I power off the monitor Only, and then check available minutes of battery backup on the LCD Screen of unit...it gives me about another 10-12 minutes.
Is there any other things I should know about this unit...like tips or certain things to do/ not to do..??
I have browsed through the forum abit to try and seek more knowledge about this unit, but if I come across any other psecific questions..I will be sure to post a thread or reply back to this one in future.
Thank you for the Help....Chris
