    one last point for clarification?? :blush:

    tut tut tut, any more of this and you'll be incurring fees 😀

    So (if I have this straight) There is one Quorum and one MSDTS and then multiple Instances would each have their own set of disks for Data, Logs, Tempdb, etc.

    With Windows 2008 you can have more than 1 clustered MSDTC, but essentially yes, you are right

    here is how I see the steps to install a Default Instance.

    1) Setup 'New SQL Server Failover Cluster Installation" on Node 1

    2) Go to the second Node (without failing over) and run set 'Add Node to a SQL Server failover

    Cluster'

    I should now have a fully functioning 2 Node Active Passive Cluster with a Default Instance.

    What do you need me for? 😉

    For each SQL Server Instance that I want to add, would I repeat steps one AND two?

    yes, that's correct.
