Thanks but that's not the issue. I have checked to see if it's listed in the plugin manager and it's not there. That's the simple answer. Unfortunately, this isnt the problem. Maya 2014 installs mental ray as a separate folder from autodesk Maya.

2013 is included and you just have to check it off, as that post shows. Unfortunately, I cannot reinstall ANY autodesk products...
I've Used their cccleaner tool just to appease them, but it still will not install any autodesk products.
