Sorry, I forgot you don't have the source tree.

In the binary distribution, you have the same information in the file
README.W32 that lives in the top-level directory of the Emacs tree.
Except that the 23.2.91 pretest doesn't have it.  (Sean, what
happened?)  But you should be able to find it in the previous pretest,
23.2.90.

Alternatively, use the Savannah interface to browse the repository at
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/.

It should be obvious that "nt/INSTALL" refers to a file INSTALL in the
nt subdirectory.
