go to the tools/options area and poke around, there is something about "task bar icon for each window" that makes it so alt-tab works... otherwise click in the "battlescreen" link at the top and it should bring up your battlescreen (it may look minimized... minimized a la windows 3.1 in the bottom left)

I"m assuming you tried clicking on the taskbar button already... try bringing up task manager and choosing the tasclient task and hitton the "switch to" button...

u prolly have ur battle and map windows minimized and you prolly arent spoting them!
try looking down too see them or something like that, if it doesnt work Ctrl+B or CTrl+M to bring them up!

Man... I bet you just moved them somewhere you couldn't see them anymore... if it happens again... select it's taskbar button, and then hit ALT+Space then press M and then one of the arrow keys to lock the movement of the window, and then move the mouse around till you see the window...
