I know. I read that. Did you check the network configurations like the KB
article said? What are you using to provide the quorum? Is it an external
SCSI, iSCSI, Fiber SAN, or NAS?

I am running the two servers in Virutal Server 2005.

The Quorum disk is a SCSI drive with the Share SCSI bus for clustering
option enabled.

The SCSI adapter is configured on both nodes using the same SCSI number and
the same SCSI port number? What SCSI ID do you have for node1 and what ID
do you have for node2?

Is the quorum configured as fixed disk size?

How are your private and public networks configured? Did you set the
network
priority in the advanced network settings? Did you configure the private
and
public network for cluster traffic?

The two servers have two NICs installed. One NIC for the public and one
NIC
of the private.

Can you ping from the two public NICs to the DC, can you ping from one
private NIC to the other?

The public NICs (e.g. 10.10.0.50 and 10.10.0.60) is meant to communicate
with the domain controller (10.10.0.40)

Does it work?

The private NICs have a IP address of 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.1.10.

Both the same? That won't work.

You are definitely missing something. I do this on an every day basis for
testing and haven't had any problems creating a cluster in Virtual Server
2005 or Virtual Server 2005 R2.

You might want to review the steps here:
