WinSvr 2008; dcpromo does not run

[Guest moondaddy]

I have a new server currently as a workstation and I want to promote it to

an active directory (the first one).

 

when I go to run and enter dcpromo, nothing happens. When I go to Add

Roles, active directory is not in the list. the only items in the list are

Application server, File server, IIS, and Windows server update services.

 

What am I missing?

Thanks Meinolf, I can't believe I left that out of the description. Win

Server 2008 standard - full install.
