Hello, crazyal
What's the manufacturer & model of the unit?
W/ a lot of laptops, you can go into Control Panel > Power Options,
then look around for the configuration for having power meter icon
always appear in the notification tray.
Good luck :-D

hello, crazyal !
Did you get your missing-battery-icon problem solved? Have you tried
Googling something like " "battery icon" missing " (w/out the first &
last quotes)?
There are a ton of posts on the subject out there, this being one of
the more informative that I found:
