Dave,

If you can connect to domain using Active Directory Users and Computer from
your computer then Right click Domain Controller OU. Click on Properties ->
Group Policy tab and click to select on Default Domain Controllers Policy.
Click on Edit.

In Group Policy Editor under Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings ->
Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Users Rights Assignment open Allow
log on locally (double click on this policy). Make sure that administrators
group is listed in this policy.
