Windows XP VM shows battery warning on start

Everytime I boot a Windows XP VM I recently created, it gives a popup saying that battery should be changed or the computer should be connected to a power supply, which is not reflecting the fact that the hosts' battery is at 89%.

Hello,
does your VM or Mac set to the the Energy saver mode?
 
It had "Ruhezustand aktivieren" (the last Tab in energy options activated - is that hibernation?) Anyway, give it a try. Switched that off now.

The message is still there. I could make it go away yet. It has bee there right from the beginning of the VM creation and must have been active already on the physical machine.

I just noticed that I had "Parallels" as Energy option (schema). For testing I niw sitched that to "Desktop"-
"Go to sleep mode" is disabled.
 
I believe the issue is solved. That Windows XP was still SP1 (yes, the original physical notebook has never been connected to the Internert after SP1). I upgraded to SP3 and all problems see to be gone.
