Its readily available. Otherwise, there is the generic nut RPM that can be configured for a number of other UPSes without much difficulty. The 2 hours of runtime is where you are going to have trouble. You're going to need a massive UPS to provide that kind of power to a desktop system. However, my laptop battery has that kind of power on a laptop system. My motherboard in my desktop system is configurable to return to the previous state it was in upon power restoration, so I don't think its a function of th UPS driver to do that. YMMV. With my PC/monitor/cable modem plugged into my APC RS 1000 it claims to have about 31 minutes of backup time. You'll obviously need a bigger model to get to 2 hours of runtime. -- Kevin J.
