>You might also check to see if the battery in the UPS is charged - log off your machine (leave it running) and pull the A/C plug from the UPS to the wall. See if the UPS keeps your machine running.
Even if you're logged off, Windows won't like it if the power goes off unexpectedly. For UPS testing, it's better to boot from a LiveCD/LiveDVD/LiveUSB (Knoppix, Ubuntu etc.) or even boot from a DOS floppy if your machine still has a floppy drive.
