I have an UPS with the control link through the Com 1 port. It is activated through the power setup in XP and probably the same in Win2K.
Right click on a blank spot on the desktop and then Left click on Properties. When the panel comes up click on Screensaver and then click on Power at the bottom of the panel. This brings up the various power settings and one tab (at least in XP) is the UPS. You can enable/disable the UPS interface there.
Two possibilities here. If you have an icon in the systemtray for that UPS software, try to close that program. If that program closes you should then be able to Hot Sync. If you can get to the startup tab via Start/Run/ msconfig, you might find that UPS program and prevent it from starting at all.
