Type "mdsched.exe" (without quotes) from the Start Menu or Start Screen for the Windows memory tester.

The best memory tests are repetitive, run overnight. See for example

But I would not necessarily expect that memory is anything to do with it. Turning off as many other applications as possible while using Audacity might help.
Setting Audacity to 16-bit Default Sample Format in
