Personally, I like the EmacsW32 release (http:// ourcomments.org/Emacs/EmacsW32.html). It is customized to work well with windows and includes a more up-to-date version of org-mode by default. The file is called '.emacs' - no extension. You can create it if it doesn't exist by typing 'C-x C-f ~/.emacs '. It might also be worth looking up the Windows section in the emacs manual (see 'Read the Emacs Manual' on the help menu).
