Power meter icon

After installing Vista SP1 today, my power meter icon is gone from the
notification area. I've tried a number of things but can't get it back. Can
anyone help?

Thanks Joe, that did the trick. I looked at that several times and just
overlooked it. Thanks again.

As far as I know (for laptops anyway), you can right click on the
system tray, click properties, then click the power box, click apply and
ok. That should take care of it.

I hope this helps.

Since yesterday I noticed I have no power icon in the notification area -- no
AC power or battery. I followed your directions also, .Joe, but after
clicking on Properties, I see no "power box". I'm using Win XP (SP3) on HP
Compaq Presario laptop.

I just want to add that my power icon is back! In another thread "system tray
notification icons missing and disable", the poster Ricardo Montabone
suggested "just log out and log back in". I did; and it worked.
