i ATTACH MY POWER CABLE IN UPS AND THE UPS POWER IN MY EXTENSION.

sO, HOW CAN I CONFIGURE MY ups WITH WINDOWS xp.

pLZ HELP ME IN THIS REGARD.
 
Do you have a data cable (serial, USB?) running from the UPS to the PC? If you don't have that setup, Windows can't see it and won't be able to act upon it. Secondly, you may need/want to install the software that came with it. If you don't have the CD, you should be able to download the software from whoever made that UPS.

Btw, you don't need to type with all caps (it's considered shouting on the internet), and this thread has been moved out of the New Build/Upgrade Advice section because hardware help threads don't belong there.
