Sharepoint 2010 - No exact match was found. Click the item(s) that did not resolve for more options.

I have a clean install of SharePoint 2010.  All Sharepoint services and/or roles are installed on the same server.  When I try to add a domain user I get the below error.

No exact match was found. Click the item(s) that did not resolve for more options.

Are the users from the same domain that SharePoint is joined to?

yes
I've read through this before..  WHICH solution pertains to my problem?  I guess later today I can try all of them..  There is only a few suggestions that I haven't already tried.

You would think this would just work out of the box?!
I've deployed probably 100 farms in the past 4 years and all of them have been able to resolve people out of the box.

Maybe you should run the config wizard again.

The solution I was referring to is the set account directory path.
I've already set the account directory path yesterday...  It first showed the below path for the user path.  When I run the set command with my domain info it appended the path to the users... It's also below...

<SiteUserAccountDirectoryPath />

<SiteUserAccountDirectoryPath>CN=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=local</SiteUserAccountDirector
yPath>

With the above path it still can't find the users and I have a few users in the the 'Users' container.  

Now, maybe I should explain the install process I did...  I've done this twice with the same results...  

I did the complete option and pointed to an existing SQL install for I didn't want to use SQL express.  Is that maybe the problem?  This is just a lab so I can restore my VM back to any state if needed in the event a reinstall makes sense... I did two clean installs using the complete option... Should I try something else?

I finally figured it out myself...  It was such an odd issue I assumed it was something to do with my win2008 install
