Here's my equipment (and issues):
-Zoom H4 mic/recorder with sort of useless pre amp effects and other simulators. It came with a version of Cubase 4, but everytime it starts up, the computer crashes. So instead of hooking the recorder directly to a computer, I have to take a pair of pliers to get at the SD card. Any suggestions for what to do about this?
-A small room that isn't insulated, can hear everything on the mic with the high gain setting.
-An Admira Juanita classical guitar that has almost no sustain and projects poorly.
-A very noisy desktop computer that crashes/freezes a lot.
-I just got back to Europe, so everything available in the US is either unvailable or too expensive for me.

I would like to know how many guitar tracks to record, and how to do it with my limited equipment. Like I'm not sure how I would record two separate tracks with the same guitar part. All I have to edit the tracks with is audacity, any other free program suggestions would be helpful too.
 
Your computer might not be up to the task of using the Zoom as an interface...it sounds like there are other issues that a new guitar would fix.

There area lot of countries in Europe, some are cheaper to buy stuff in than the USA?

I don't have a choice right now to move back... and trust me, you don't want to buy cheap stuff where I live.
