Just recently my volume meter and my battery meter have disappeared from the
lower right hand corner part of my start bar. ( i dont know what thats called
) it happened after a windows XP update. i dont know if thats the cause or
not. Is there anyway to fix this? thanks

Go into the power options section of the control panel (Start-Control
Panel-Power Options) and there's a check box for showing the meter on the
task bar. Make sure it's checked.

Kate,
I'm having the exact same issue. Everything is checked as it should be but
no power meter. I have a Compaq Prsario V2414NR. This just happened after the
last update. I'm researching it at the Compaq site also.
