UPDATE: PC troubleshooting assistance needed by vampire2008-08-22 07:12:20
  I think you are running into 2 seperate issues by Classic_Jon2008-08-22 08:47:59
    Somthing else I just noticed. What all do you by Classic_Jon 2008-08-22 09:00:12
have plugged into the UPS?

In looking at the UPS and your system specs, you may be overpowering the UPS and getting some "square power" as the saying goes :)

You have a 750w Power supply and a pretty well loaded down box and the UPS you have is only rated for 475 watts. (900VA = = 475 Watts)

I would also make sure that none of the hard drives is using a power lead that has a fan pass thru on it. It is not normally an issue but I have seen where a fan will put off enough interference to cause some really odd problems.
