Your situation helps make my case for hooking any computer to a UPS,
not a wall outlet or surge strip. The AC voltages feeding the power
supply can vary enough to cause your DC output voltages to be out of
acceptable range, low and high. Now if some electrical expert will
give us the percantage of voltage variance that is acceptable, we
will have lots more to work with. My uneducated guess is 10% which
would allow the widest acceptable range for a 12 volt output to be
from 10.8 to 13.2. That seems too wide. 5% seems more realistic, 11.4 to 12.6.
PS manufacturers suggest a 10% variance.
