promoting 2012 r2 server to domain controller

I have a new server running windows server 2012 r2 with the AD role added. I have it added to the domain as a member server. I am trying to add it as a domain controller to a 2003 AD environment. the 2 DCs are 2003 servers. I go through the steps to promote it as a domain controller and I get an error that it cannot find a DC with 2008 or newer. This is the first DC to be added as a DC to the 2003 AD evrironment. How do I add this without screwing up the 2003 AD?
