No icon or utilities...

Does anyone know why, after an upgrade from SQL 2000 to 2K5, there would not be an icon or a path to get to Management Studio? I can register the server from other locations and the services are running on that box, but there are no options on the box itself to get to Management Studio.(i.e. Start...Programs...SQL Server 2005...Management Studio) Please advise.

Most likely, the client tools were not installed. I don't think that they are installed in a default installation on a Server OS.

Put in your installation media, and select client tools.
