I will Post the Error in the log file below. I've searched for help with this error already and found some solutions, of which none have worked. I completely uninstalled Exchange 2010. From AD I erased the Exchange Security Objects. I enabled Ipv6 on all servers. I used adsiedit to remove the the old Exchange 2010 server. I'm also running the install from an elevated command prompt. Anyway, the error is below. This is on Windows server 2008 r2. Thank You in advance.
