I tried to do this yesterday and it would only give me the option to
do a clean install, not to update. Any idea why?

Thanks,

Apparently, you acquired an "OEM version" of Windows XP,
which is not designed to upgrade an existing Windows Installation.
OEM versions can only be installed on a clean, reformatted drive.
Only "retail versions" of Windows XP have the upgrade capability.
