Alright well i was trying to update my MDA to WM6 and it errored at 96% and now all i got is the three color thing.
My question is, how do i go about fixing it and reinstalling an OS?

You need to specify what your IPL/SPL is so we can tell if this is a G3 or G4 phone and what state its currently in, but... Since you have the rainbow boot loader screen, with the USB attatched, you should be able to run your carrier's official rom to reinstall it.
A lot of the ROMs will pause for 5 mins or more around the 95% mark (it varies, I've seen some pause like this at 80%, some 90%, some 95% or 96%), so you just have to wait for it to finish (or you get an error on your PC).
If you are wanting to load a custom rom (or one not from your carrier) then you need to go into the Wizard Upgrading forum and read the stickies at the top. If you have a G3 device, the Faria and Dr P stickies are the ones you want. If you ahve a G4, then read the sticky for upgrading a CID Locked device...
Good luck (and be careful. make sure you read and read and read ;) )

?if you mean the cd that came with the phone from t-mob and the official rom. it almost certainly won't be on the disc as the phones are sold with the rom already flashed, and they don't want you to be able to flash another rom so they would not provide it to flash back to. you'll have to search for it. if you are usa t-mob http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter/Software_List.cfm?selDevice=24
otherwise, google.
