Windows Memory Diagnostic is a command line prg that can be run from bootable floppy. IIRC it displays "Loading NT Kernel" somewhere when it boots but I don't really think it uses more memory then Memtest :-D

You're right - I was mixing that up with another test. WMD had slipped my mind as well since I've pretty much exclusively used memtest or a derivative since early 2000ish. It's still the best option to work with first considering how thoroughly it tests (patterns, etc.) and it's verboseness.
