If you have nothing the first thing is to install server itself. After that you can install whatever you want, whether it be active directory and dns, dhcp, whatever. The blow link will show you step by step how to install server, promote the server to a domain controller, add dns, and config dhcp I believe.

Good luck,

texam, you beat me to the punch. I would suggest that you get study guides and follow the lab exercise to get a clear understanding on how needed to get done, otherwise, you have to search the web exhaustedly. Get MS Press 70-290 book; it's great for this exam as well as lab exercise.
