Inplace Upgrade from Windows 2000 DC and AC server to Windows 2003

I have a windows 2000 domain controller in a small network (30 workstations). This server is also running terminal services and it is the only DC in the domain. I need to do a inplace upgrade to windows 2003 standard edition. When I tried the upgrade, it seemed like everything was good, except that all the active directory icons were grayed out therefore AC was not accessible. I restored to window 2000 and have not upgraded at this point.
I searched technet, google and have found no documents that can help. Do you have a few words of wisdom me in moving to windows 2003? If there is a better way of doing this process, please let me know. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
