I tried to use my Vista Ultimate and bypassed the numbers and it would not
let me into the OS, says I have to have an OS to upgrade. Microsoft techies
said yes I have to install Win2000 then XP upgrade then Vista. Now I have to
wipe my partition clean using a third party software and install 3 OS's,
does that suck or what.

Do do what you have to do. Wasting time here whining won't make it
happen any faster.
 
A Google search will reveal an unsupported method of installing the Vista
upgrade on a clean hard drive, or you can install the XP upgrade first, it
will ask you to provide your Win2k disk during installation to verify, no
need to actually install 2k before hand.

Listening to idiots like you won't make his day any better.

I went into safe mode and re-installed and it worked
