You want either the .iso to make a bootable cd or the precompiled
Windows binary to make a bootable floppy. Boot with Memtest86 and it
will run immediately. Normally you don't need to change the default
configuration. Allow the test to run for a while, unless you get errors
immediately. If you get errors, replace the RAM.
