    Hey Guys,

    I got a vaio TZ, and just wondering if it is possible to hide the battery/power icon while on AC and automatically enable the icon if on battery.

    I remember i did this on XP but can't find the same option in vista.

    Anyone?

    Thanks

    My experience is completely opposite. The icon disappeared on me (after it showed for a while), and there is no way to turn it back on except to reboot. This is on AC.
