| I have run into this before when I tried to make
my laptop a DC.
It turns out that dcpromo will run only if it
detects at least one active network connection.
So connect your machine to a hub (any hub) on
any active LAN, run dcpromo, and disconnect.
Everything will run fine afterwards.
Let me know if this works for you.

| Thanks for the reply,
Does the lan really have to be active or is it enough to just have a powered
up Hub?

| When I did the setup I used an active hub.
Have not tried a powered hub with no other connection,
so I don't know the answer to your question.
Why don't you try it and let us know?
