Fred,

Do what Warren said about getting the APC out of the system. Then to get to SAFE MODE, just as soon as you turn the computer on start tapping the F8 key. That will bring you to a DOS like screen with some options, one of which is SAFE MODE. Select that by using the up and down arrow keys and hit enter. It will only load the stuff needed to make the computer run and the screen will be all strange looking but that is normal. The resolution will be way off. Then go to Control Panel and find your APC software and remove it. My APC units have one side with 4 plugs with a battery back-up and the other side with 4 plugs has a built in surge protector. I have two of them and have never loaded their software as I didn't like what I read when I opened the file and read what it was supposed to do.
