well one thing you could try is go into component mode, (by pressing F8) and then right clicking on the 'Points' button (looks like a black box next to a black dot) and make sure poly vertices has an X in the box. if there's no X then it won't let you select poly vertices.

also just to make sure, next to the points button is the 'set the component selection mask' button, it looks like a stack of two equal signs with a down-pointing triangle between them... left-click on that, and make sure that you pick 'all components off'. then choose just points mode and see if you can select your vertices then.
