cannot connect to sql 2005 with management studio

Hi ,

I install sql 2005 CTP but cannot connect to the server with management studio

installation was successful and was named instance and under local system account

in event viewer mssql service is running ok, I see even it connects to master db

I can start and stop server with my old sql agent 2000

and I see only 1 error saying in event log:

The SQL Network Interface library was unable to register SPN. Error: 0x54b.

I have for OS 2003 server running on my laptop :-)

any help?
