No one can answer unless you explain exactly how you upgraded to Ultimate.

You don't give enough information, but I'm going to guess that early in
the upgrade process when you had to enter your Product Key you entered
the wrong one. You entered your original product key which was for Home
Premium instead of the new one for Ultimate. You will need to change the
product key. In Vista Help, look for "change product key".

The Product Key on the bottom of your laptop was for Home Premium and so
you did not correctly upgrade to Ultimate, just as I suspected. You need
to do what I already said - change the Product Key to the one you got
with the Ultimate upgrade. To do that, go to Vista's Help and search for
"change Product Key".
