Can't upgrade SQL2000 SP4

I'm running Backup Exec 10d on a WIndows 2003 R2 Standard Server with SP2. I'm trying to upgrade the SQL2000 SP2 to SQL2000SP4 and I'm getting and error message, "SQL Server 2000 is not installed on this machine. Setup will now exit" The version of SQL2000 is the one that was installed by BackupExec. It seems to be a scaled down version as there are no GUI applications installed for the SQL component. How can I install SQL2000 SP4 on this version of SQL200 that came with BackupExec 10?

What  BackupExec installs is not the standard MSSQL, it is MSDE or SQLExpress depending on the verison.  (IIRC v10 was still MSDE)
