Does anyone know if there is a way to configure XP to record UPS events in the Event log?

Our office had a power failure last night and my machine went on battery power and subsequently shut off.

When I arrived in the morning, my machine was powered off ... and there was no obvious indication of why.

I looked in the event log but couldn't find anything.

After looking at all the recent events, I found the following...

> Event Type:        Information
> Event Source:      Application Popup
> Event Category:    None
> Event ID:  26
> Date:              8/3/2004
> Time:              11:10:07 PM
> User:              N/A
> Computer:  ILDGIBBS1
> Description:
> Application popup: Low Battery : You should change your battery or
> switch to outlet power immediately to keep from losing your work.

Well this obviously indicates that we lost power ... but "Application popup" isn't what I would categorize a power failure as.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
