1174710 2011-02-02 09:44:00 On my laptop running Win XP SP3, the power status icon doesn't appear as it should.

I can make it reappear by opening power options, going to the advanced tab, deselecting the "Always show icon on the taskbar" checkbox, clicking "Apply", then reselecting the checkbox and hitting "OK".

However upon rebooting it no longer shows.

???

If so, then you need to change a setting to make it always show. You can find instructions here - Organize your notification area (www.microsoft.com)

1174712 2011-02-02 09:59:00 might be an issue with the registry? You might be able to find out where the icons are set and change it there? 8ftmetalhaed (14526)
