repair task manager

My problem is that after having a game lock up my screen and trying to "key"
my way out (esc, ctl+alt+del, F1, etc.) my task manager window no longer has
the toolbar at the top nor the usage info at the bottom. To close it I have
to hit esc. Does anybody know how to restore task manager back to its former
glory? ;) (this happened awhile back and System Restore would no longer be
an option, if that would have been the way to go anyway)
Thanks

It sounds as if you have Task Manager running in "Tiny
footprint mode". Double click the border to restore it to its
original appearance.

Why is part of my Task Manager gone?
