Battery Meter does not show time remaining.

Hello, I just bought a new laptop with Vista Home Premium. When I put my
mouse over the battery icon it just displayed the % left. Is there a way to
get it to show the % left as well as the time left too? Thanks,

-Thomas

I think there is a driver you need for that. Apparently it wasn't
found/provided. Check the manufactuer's website.
