Hello Guys,
Okay I Want you know at school they have the LAN Networks where you can login to your area on any computer on the network i want to do that on two windows 7 computers one is ultimate and one is Profession and one is 32 bit 2 gb's of ram and one has 4 but the 64 bit one crashes that has 4 gb's of ram if you do two much on it.

So How would i make them work like that?
And could i use 3rd party software?
And could i set an amount of memory to them like shear the memory from both witch would be 1tb and 150gb's 1tb is from the 64 bit
Thnaks!

You can have a network at home. Generally, this is done with a router as the main connection. Each machine can see a shared folder on the other machines.

In my home network, I have Win 7, Win 8, Win 8.1, Linux, Win Server 2012...all sharing drives.
But you can't really share the CPU power.

If the 64bit Win 7 machine is crashing, maybe it needs to be 'fixed'. Something is wrong with it or the installation of some of the software. It should not do that.
 
If you want to set up a network similar to school with network user accounts, you will need more hardware and software than you have available to you pretty much.

While networking computer resources is a thing, it doesn't work on the scale your talking about. If you connected a large quantity of RAM to your system by a typical home network so that it had no local memory (which isnt possible, but hypothetically), you would end up with worse performance than even having vastly insufficient local memory would.
Or I can drop my literal interpretation of what you mean by "memory" and see that your actually talking about HDD capacity :p
Note: memory properly refers to RAM, not storage capacity.

You can network drives pretty easily, Windows offers this through its Homegroup functionality.
