Thanks Sam, I had similar issue, I have no problem deploying Windows 2008 servers, only Server 2012 had trouble. ACS 4.4.1 is not officially release yet, so I was hopping you had the steps to upgrade from ACS 4.4. I would really like to upgrade as soon as possible because I am pressure into use this current cluster to install essential machines for my company.
