Default Battery Icon disapears in system tray

hello. When I start my laptop I expect that the icon off the battery is in
the system tray. But most of the times it isn't. So I can't see how much
power my battery has left.
When I go to: properties system tray (systemicons), there I can click
on: clock - volume - network an energy.
But most of the time I can't click on them. It's really odd.

Can anybody help me with that?

Right click on the Start button, click "Properties". Where it says
"Notification icon", click that tab. On the right click "customize"
and there should be a list of icons with a button at the bottom that
says "restore defaults". Click that that and save the changes. Now
the power checkbox should work!

Hope that helps. ~

Right now the checkbox for Power is grayed out while everything else is
checked and fine. I tried unchecking and checking the hide inactive icons and
also went into customize and restored everything to the default setting. I
also restarted the computer but it's still grayed out. Can you help me out?
