I did run the installation and worked fine, but I cant install management studio for 2008 R2.. I try but doesnt work, the management studio stays in 2005 folder.. >.< how can I do?

You'll need to explain "I try but doesnt work". That doesn't give us enough information to help you. Did you forget to install the client tools?

Like I try to install but installation doest work..

I open installation center, setup support files suscessfully, then I choose the option 'Add features to an existing instance of SQL Srver 2008 R2' select the only instance available to choose and click on next.. Then on the 'Select Features' part, I can only see 'SQL Client Connectivity SDK' with a blocked checkbox.. Trying click next would just give me the error 'to continue, select a feature to install. If all features are already selected, these features are installed. You can not add additional features' so I can not install mssms 2008 r2 >.< :S

I don't have setup.exe in front of me right now, but I don't think you want to hit the "add features" option. What else is on that screen?

I ran through setup.exe just now, you are on the right page, it's just that you are using Express. Express doesn't come with GUI tools like SSMS. You can separately download SSMS Express if you don't have access to a higher edition that comes with tools.
