## Windows Server 2003 Error 0x0000007B on boot
When attempting to raise the domain functional level on windows server 2003 from 2000 to 2003, I got an error stating that the Active directory service is busy.

My solution was to delete the non existing domain controllers from the domain.
Doing so wasn't as easy as I'd thought, here's a guide on that: http://windowsitpro.com/windows/how-do-i-remove-nonexistent-domain-controller
