Where's my Mental Ray?

Hi everyone. I just have a quick question and it's that I have maya 5 intstalled on 2 computers (both off the same CD), but only one of them has mental ray. Now I know the kneejerk reaction is just to reinstall but I've done that a million times and I still don't have it. Sorry if this sounds realy stupid but it's really irritating that I somehow blindly got mental ray on one computer and now I can't do it again.

Have you activated it in the plugin manager? (assuming 5 is the same as 4)
