Have you ever tried to run your SMS console and the following error appears?
MMC cannot open the file (drive):\SMS\bin\i386\sms.msc
This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have sufficient rights to the file.
Happened to me twice so far and the fix is pretty simple. You must browse to C:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Microsoft\MMC\SMS and rename the sms file in that folder. I usually do a _old to keep just incase. After the rename just run the console again and it will recreate the file..
Thats it. From a little research it seems to happen when remoted to the SMS server and having the server lock / lose connecting while the console is still running.
