Here is my issue. I want my Administrators to need to use smart card or some
type of secondary authenication when they log in as a domain/enterprise
admin. I was thinking of using a usb as the 2nd part authenication. Does
anyone know how to set this up? I would like to use something built into
Windows like pki etc. Thanks.

Windows 2000 and later have built in support for Smart Cards.

To use smart cards you have to set up (or use someone's PKI infrasturcture).
If you want to build your own PKI here are some white papers you can look
at...

And think about which smart cards to use since this will influence your
deployment. Some CSPs (Crypto Service Providers) are already included in
Windows and some you have to buy and later deploy in your environment.
