Are you managing your battery backup through your computer, or are you just
plugged into it without management?
Also, you might check your power options under "Display Properties" to see
if your desktop thinks it's a laptop for some reason.
Finally, you might have a utility that warns you about the watch battery on
the motherboard? I've never seen one, but that doesn't mean they don't
exist.

Subject: [CGUYS] battery is weak, switch to ac power
My desktop computer recently began displaying a message that my battery
power is weak and advises to switch to AC power. I am connected to AC
power. The message comes from Windows XP, I think.
What causes the message?
I am connected to AC power thru a battery backup that comes on when AC
power is interrupted. Could this be the problem?
