Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you just want it to act as a simple UPS, there's no need for any software installation. If you want your computer to interact with the UPS, you'll need to install APC-provided software. The unit comes with an installation CD, with software for various Windows versions, and for MACs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No rerason why not. What software or pc make or model is not the issue --- you purchase an APC based on how much power you need to supply the equipment of your desired period of time. In other words, will 10 minutes do it for you, or do you need longer to close down your computer in a power failure.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The APC units work with all operating systems, but the powerchute software is only available for Windows. Unless you run a server or keep your machine running while you're away, it really shouldn't matter.
