Installing from a corrupt OS..

My original OS managed to get corrupted so I grabbed vista ultimate. I put it
on my computer, had to make it a separate OS then deleted my original OS and
when I turned it on it says my product key is invalid, well to be precise one
error said it was suppose to upgrade my OS not stand alone... pull up the
full error message in a few. Anyone know how to fix this?

Hi,

You'll need to reinstall as an upgrade to the new install. Insert the disk
into the running installation, follow the prompts to do an in-place upgrade
and use the Product key when prompted.
