I have installed microsoft sql server 2008 express edition but I am unable to run it
when I went through

start->microsoft sql server 2008

there are two more option
1- configuration tools
2- import and export data(32 bits)

In configuration tool there are three more options but none seems to run the database as how other database servers like MySql, Oracle...etc runs.

how exactly this to be run?

I think it is already running...
You have to use/install a tool to query databases on your server.
In express version I have no clue.
In other versions you use SSMS.

x86 is the right choice for you.
