I installed MySQL version "mysql-5.7.10-winx64" on Windows Server 2008 x64 Standard Edition, but I have a problem. When I start mysqld.exe
from CMD (Command Prompt) I always have this error:
The procedure entry point TryAcquireSRWLockExclusive could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll.

According to this post on the MySQL forums which cites the MySQL supported platforms page, you need Windows 2008 R2 to run that version of MySQL.
I encountered the exact same error attempting to install MongoDB 3.4.3 on a Windows 2008 server when I downloaded the wrong version of the installer.
