How to install Windows Server 2012 on a Mac Mini

Well the title says it all. I am in a small apartment and am setting up my home network. I purchased a Mac Mini to run Apple OS X Server on and also make sure that I can pass the certification test for Apple. But I would also like to set up a Windows Domain Controller so that I can either:

Have a Mac Mini I can dual boot

- or -

Purchase a second Mac Mini and just put Windows Server 2012 on it.

Now you might ask why buy a mac and run windows. Well for one I need to get my MS certs up to date and for another, I am space constrained and the Mini is nice, small, and fits perfect where I would set it.

I have tried this following boot camp and some other guides. However, when I boot it never sees the attached USB or it never boots from the attached USB.

I have placed the Windows partition on the secondard disk drive as well, not the primary. Do not know if this makes a defference, from what I read it should not.

Thanks in Advance for any advise, guidance, or sections to read. Maybe Apple will officially support Windows 8 which should retroactively support 2012 before year end. 😁
