Hello annalu,
NO, NEVER use an image created from a DC. This result in a USN rollback:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/885875
depending on your OS.
If you not have a t least a system state backup from some days ago, follow
this article to remove the DC from the domain and reinstall it from scratch.
