Hi manch03,
Just had this same error whilst perfoming a swing migration for SBS2003, I can confirm that setting the registry permissions for the Network Service account cleared this error on the next reboot as per Housenet's post:
"I fixed this by changing the registry key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MS
Reboot then gave Event ID 4143 MSDTC has detected a DC promotion event since the last time MSDTC service was started. So I would suggest that the further part of Housenet's post detailing the stop and start of the MSDTC service would be sufficient to effect this fix.
Hope it goes well.
