Cluster setup failing

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Having trouble installing a cluster.
We did this before but a MS Consultant did it all, i wasn't actively
involved, from what i remember he just hit next next next etc. and it worked

I have tried to install it on another system using the documentation he
left, but not having luck.

1. tried it normally as MS Consultant’s documents state: Failed
2. tried it again, failed, researched on error message found something on
license model has to be device not processor so ried it using different
licencse model (this time device) : failed
a. researched on error message found something about a “race” problem and it
said to install it on one node then add the other, tried it by installing it
to one node only, that worked, created the cluster resources etc. But then
tried adding the second node…failed

worked through kb 321063 (and some others )

last error which I received on node two is

09:03:17 ShowDialogsGetDialog returned: nCurrent=0x80000,index=19
09:03:17 Begin Action ShowDialogsHlpr: 0x80000
