Management Studio cannot edit queries

On a new build of a laptop, I've installed Enterprise Manager, rebooted,
then installed SQL2005 Management Studio. Everything was fine.

Then I installed SP2.

I find that within Management Studio, the "New Query" button brings up a
query editior, but I cannot input control characters (new line, backspace,
delete etc).

In addtition, if I bring up options (Tools-->Options), and then select
Environment-->Keyboard, I get a DISP_E_EXCEPTION error.

A full deinstall (including of .Net), reboot and reinstall does not help.

This is the second time this has happened to me - a previous installation on
a different laptop went the same way, although then I didn't associate it
with the SP2 installation.



Help!
