Try giving more information.
like this is a new install.
or this is a new install but there were directories with user scripts and preferences used by this new install.
or This is an old install thats been tinkered with by 20 people before me.
replacing a Maya script is pretty drastic?
Did someone tinker with the Maya's script files before u?
if not, Put the original scriptEditorPanel.mel back ( if u can ).
did u try disabling all external user scripts ( hiding them in an archive directory? )
did u try backing up prefs folder to an archive directory and then deleting prefs folder?
Did u bite the bullet and re-install.
don't try everything at once though.
U want to narrow the culprit down.
