Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory: The Active Directory organization configuration version etc

I'm trying to set up Exchange 2013.

There are two errors - not sure which one is fatal (perhaps both)

Eror 1: Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory: The Active Directory organization configuration version (15870) is higher than Setup's version(15844). Therefore, PrepareAD can't be executed. See the Exchange setup log for more information on this error.

Error 2: Global updates need to be made to Active Directory, and this user account isn't a member of the 'Enterprise Admins' group

The 2nd error surprises me because I've logged in with an account that has access to pretty much everything. I tried a second account, same result. Perhaps it has something to do with the process running as administrator.

Additional info: this is the 2nd time I have set up an Exchange 2013 server on the domain. This is probably why we have the version issue. I scrubbed the first server because it corrupted.

I have tried:

  1. Installing from the dvd
  2. Setup /PrepareAD /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms (on both the Exchange machine and the domain controller)
  3. Deleting all the Exch containers in active directory (but not deleted entries from the schema)

Anyone help?
