Very frusterated trying to install RDS on a brand new installation of Server 2012 Standard. A fairly simple and straightforward powershell command (after failing the GUI with the same results) of "Add-WindowsFeature –Name RDS-RD-Server –IncludeAllSubFeature -Reboot" goes through the preliminary steps and then restarts - gets to 64% of "configuring windows features, do not turn off" and does a second reboots touting the message "preparing to configure windows" and then counts to 64% again and the message "failure configuring windows updated reverting changes". pops up which it promptly does returning me to a machine that has RDP access for remote administration only. I'm really not seeing anything related in the Application, System or Setup log files. There is nothing special about this system. It is not a DC nor does it have any other roles and services. This was the first and only role I installed after a brand new setup and it failed. It is, a virtual server running on a 2008R2 Hyper-V host but that shouldn't be a problem. Any thoughts?
