2005 no client tools installed

I have a customer that their IT "expert" loaded SQL Server 2005, but
only the database - no other tools, so the SQL Server Management Studio
isn't loaded. Then, the SP for SQL 2005 has been installed on the
machine. Now, I can't load the Management studio because the version are
different - it returns a message about getting a correct version of
sqlcnli.msi.
My main reason to get this is I need to change the SQL security to allow
both windows and SQL security, and I need to set the password for SA. I
know I can change the password via osql -E, but is there a way to change
the main security mode of SQL to allow both windows and SQL from the
osql prompt? If so, what command will do it.
Secondly, what options do I have to get the management studio loaded
since the SP has already been loaded?
Thanks in advance.

You can download and install sqlncli.msi separately, install it, then run
the SQL Seer 2005 setup again and you should be able to install the client
tools.

Can't you do the former from the Configuration Manager and/or Surface Area
Configuration tool? Those should be there.
A|||Where can I download the sqlcnli.msi from?
Also, I looked on the configuration and the surface manager and couldn't
find on either where the security mode for SQL is set.

Installation of MS Sql Server Native CLient failed baecause a higher
version already exists on the machine. To proceed, uninstall the higher
version and then run MS SQL Server Native Client Setup again.

Is that the new "Predictive Assessment Tool" I've been hoping for?
