No cord, no battery. No icon whatsoever.

Just looked. everything is ticked, except Valve's 'Steam'. I got fed up with that starting up a while ago!!!

I've lost my battery icon, been missing for some ime now!! Anyway, I have tried ticking/unticking/ticking the little box in control panel>Power Options, but still it is as illusive as ever. Also just tried the new QuickSet from...

I expect if you 'un-clock' the thing, all will be well.
