Hey hey

Just formatted the lappy using the official dell cd. Using the dell support site i downloaded most the applications and drivers for the Inspiron 6000.

Downloaded Quickset which shows me the power if i press Fc and F3 together but before there was an icon which would actually let me know how much powe rthere is but thats now disappeared and i cant find the software that will allow me to enable it again so i can easily see

Any advice would be much apprecaited...

thanks

Josh

    There is a check box in control panel> power options to show battery power (if it is charging or how much you have left etc)
