Hi

Is the machine already a domain member and for any reason does the account
already exist in the Domain Controllers OU? If so, remove it from the
domain and delete the account before attempting to promote it. If you can't
remove it from the domain, make sure it isn't already in the DCs OU and
reset the computer account with:

329721 Description of Netdom.exe Syntax and Versions
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=329721

Failing all of this, harvest the dcpromo.log and dcpromoui.log files from
%windir%\debug and look for clues.

Kind regards
