Maya 2016 missing .dll files (can't open maya)

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I recently had to re-install Maya 2016 (icant remember why i had to uninstall it in the first place). 

However, every time i install Maya and then go to start it for the first time... I get an error message saying that " ... .dll" (adlmnt.dll, QtCore4.dll, quir4.dll etc) file is missing. And the error suggests reinstalling Maya again. But this happens repeatedly, each and eve time. 

What am i doing wrong? I've followed the installation guide. Tried both with and without my anti-virus spyware software turned on... Deleted/unistalled all peices and crumbs from prior installed copies.... 
Im lost. My system can most definitely handle the program. I am a full-time game development student and need this software on my home computer for school work.

Anyone know what my next step would be?
