How to upgrade Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate with a Full (not Upgrade) Copy of Ultimate?

I am running Vista Home Premium. I have a full license of Vista Ultimate in a new box (in other words, it is a full ready-to-install copy, not an Upgrade edition). How do I upgrade from my existing system from Home to Ultimate inline (as if I had an Upgrade edition) without losing my data?

"I'm fairly sure you need their ""anytime upgrade"" versions to upgrade from one version to another.

"Do a backup of important stuff and just install a fresh copy, upgrading is a joke, especially on
Windows platforms.

I install fresh, I don't upgrade."
