If u wanna push the server to the limit just install Windows XP on it
I don't know that kinda software i just know Sisoft Sandra to test the hardware by benchmarking it..

microscope Burn-in

then again it costs money
for the simple way, install any windows, install something like seti/distributed.net/mersenne.org and let it run 24 hours at 100% cpu, especially mersenne can use upto 400megs mem ...

for plain memory test, i like the ct ram tester

ftp://ftp.heise.de/pub/ct/ctsi/ctramtst.zip
its german, but you simply run it off a clean dos boot floppy, it puts itself into the ram of the gfx card and tests the ram of the system

look in the win2000 resource kit. you can use tools like "cpu stress" to test/burn the servers.
