I created a domain account, SQLUser, and added it to the local admin group on each server.... However, once it finishes installing database services, the install craps out, and gives the error "REMOTE SETUP FAILED". ... (microsoft.public.sqlserver.clustering)

The server has been chugging away in a small business environment for several years and I have administered it for them for about a year making sure that the updates were installed and their mailboxes were managed etc etc. ... My main reason for slipstreaming the install is because I cannot get the original 2003 server install to cope with the new hardware and it falls over part way into the install - BSOD bit. ...
