HT5654 Help.     A failed update to ITunes has stopped me gaining access to ITunes. "Error7 (Windows error 1114)". " R6034 C runtime library loaded incorrectly". What can i do? I'm not computer literate!

Today i received a prompt from Apple to download the latest ITunes update. I did so and received a message that the update had failed. Now i cannot gain access to ITunes on my computer or play any of my music files associated with ITunes. I just keep getting the following 2 messages:-
Itunes not installed correctly. Please reinstall ITunes. Error 7 (Windows error 1114).
Runtime Error. Program:c:\Program Files\ITunes\ITunes.exe.  R6034 Application made attempt to load C runtime library incorrectly. Contact application's support team.
I have many tunes in my ITunes library & playlists which i do not want to lose. I am not computer literate and am afraid if i simply download the latest version of ITunes from the web, it may result in erasing those tunes.
Can anybody help me out please ?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
