Not sure, must be something on that machine though - can you try a VM or another physical machine? I've installed on a physical server and VM without issue.
Weird problem with Server 2008 R2

Hadn't thought about that, I will try in a VM and install the AD services.
I had it installed on another machine a while back, but I don't think I had installed and configured the AD services on it.
I'll give it a shot and let you know.

How much memory do you have? Install vmware and set it up as a VM. This will make it bypass the hardware drivers for the most part

I have 8GB of DDR3 in the system I am trying to set it up on.
And I tried installing it in VMWare but it said I couldn't set up Virtual Machines of 64 bit OS.
Tried looking in my BIOS for an option that would let me, couldn't find it.

You can't run 64bit OS on a VM unless it's a high end VM.

High End VM being?
And well I can't test it somewhere else, I have no other machine to install it on and it doesn't work in VM.

The kind of VM software you have to pay a great deal of money for. Compare VMWare Player (which is free) to VMWare vSphere (which isn't).
Edit: Actually I just checked and vSphere only does x86 as well. *shrug*

Virtualbox supports 64bit guest operating systems provided your cpu has hardware virtualization support.

I will check if it will run in Virtual Box.

Correct, sorry should have clarified. Most free programs will not virtualize a 64 bit OS. The only one i've seen do this is Virtual box but you have to enable virtualization at the BIOS level for it to work (assuming that's even an option in your BIOS). I tried it on mine and couldn't get it to work.
