got it finally i hope,

shutting down the p.c power, and the power through the u.p.s, not unpluging anything, then the computor is grounded,but make sure you touch the side of the case to disapate any static electricity, no strap needed,... unpluging the power from the u.p.s. you would need the strap clipped to the unpainted side of the unit to ground the unit, the other wrapped around your wrist. that way the unit is grounded right? if so, please let me know and thanks to all, if not
please tell me were i'm wrong. bill.:-)
