Make sure to click "Start", "Run" and type dcpromo to make the pc a "Domain Controller". That should install Active Directory.

I'm not sure on what to do then, because as far as I know the very first thing you have to do to migrate to a domain is run dcpromo to promote the pc to a "Domain Controller". Are you able to reformat and try fresh?
