Can you post the exact error ? I've installed previous versions of MySQL on windows without issue. Normally all required libraries would be shipped with the binary distribution.

 

Hi and welcome to CF!

I agree with dmarsh - I've not had any problems doing this.

Which MySQL package did you install? Most of the ones I've seen are complete and have no problems.
