I recently purchased a Full Version copy of Vista Ultimate, and installed it
onto my computer as a fresh install. However, no more than a day into the
instal, after activation of course, my hard drive died, and i needed to
reinstall onto one of my secondaries. Now I receive posts on activation that
my key is invalid and i need to purchase a new one. I spent the 400 already
to get this, tell me there's a way around needing to buy another key just
because of hardware failure.

Do the phone activation.
 
With the full version of Vista, you can activate the OS an unlimited number
of times and move the OS to a new computer/hard drive an unlimited number of
times (as long as it's removed from the previous computer/hard drive).

If it will not activate by choosing the Internet activation option, then use
the Telephone option.
