Can't upgrade from Business to Ultimate

A couple of months ago I assembled a new PC and put Windows Vsta Business on
it. I started adding other applications and moving my files then was given
a copy of Vista Ultimate. I tried to do an upgrade from Business to
Ultimate but after about 10 minutes received a very generic message
basically saying that the upgrade couldn't continue for no particular reason
and when I hit OK it undid the changes and I was back where I started. I
ran Windows Update, and checked that my sytem had the required specs
(everything was above 5.0 except the video card was only rated 3.8 which is
OK, I don't do gaming). I tried the upgrade a couple of times to no avail.
I would have tried in safe mode but the only option was to do a clean
install. I would rather not do a clean install as I have personalized
everything.
How can I find out what caused the upgrade failure so I can fix that problem
and continue with the install?
