HT1349 My computer popped up with an update from iTunes several days ago. I downloaded the update and when I went to open iTunes, it won't open. I've tried to download again from the website, but it still gives me this error message.  Missing MSVCR80.dll

My computer popped up with an update from iTunes several days ago. I downloaded the update. When I went to open iTunes on my computer, it gives me the following error messages...
Missing MSVCR80.dll file.
Error 7 (Windows error 126)
I tried to download iTunes again from the website and repair the problem, to no avail.  I've tried several times, but cannot get it to open. I have a Windows 7 machine.  My iPhone 5 and iPad work fine and have not asked me to update. I've never had a problem with iTunes before.  I hate to delete it entirely from my computer and start over.  I'm afraid I'll lose all the music I have downloaded there. What do I do?
