You might faced some problem while installation of SQL Server 2005.

Try to re-intall with Tools - Workstation components.
and do not use the default instance, use the named one
To use the management tool in SQL Server 2005 like you would use SQL 2000 you have to install an additional component.

If you go to this website:

Or search for SQL 2005 Management Tool
you should be able to find it.

Download and install this item and see if you have the items.
