Power Option Icon

[Guest]

I keep losing the power icon on my laptop. Windows XP. I reset it in
Control Panel and checkmark to display the icon on the taskbar, but reboot
and it's gone. Any help out there. I want to be able to keep track of my
battery charge. Thanks.

Device Host service help. For more information, check the following
