I like to think I know my way around computers, but I'm at a loss with this one... One day my laptop shutdown accidentally, and on restarting it, a few things were wrong, all icons were missing except the flag and volume icons. Wallpaper gone and on classic theme, I restarted my Laptop once again, and it all fixed, except the battery icon is gone now... It's almost like the laptop does not recognize that this laptop is running off of battery power... When it runs out, there is no warning of any type, it just cuts dead in the middle of whatever I'm doing.
I tried

    Enabling it in system icons,power is grayed out and set to "off"
    Checked if drivers are present for the battery, they are, and so is the charger.
    Checked if the power service is started, it is.


Thanks!
