I got this tablet not two months ago and already crashing. Keeps kicking out to restart. Lucky to have been able to write this. Is there an app i can use to fix this? Please help.

Also Chrome keeps saying not responding.

The RCA Viking Pro Tablet only got as far as Android 5.0 (Lollipop) so the only way to use external memory to supplement internal memory would involve rooting your tablet. Instructions for doing that may be hard to come by. For your other problems I would suggest doing a Factory reset and starting over installing your apps.

Welcome to the Android Forums kbbgood!
 
When I first added the sd card it asked which I wanted, internal or external memory. I think I choose external. Looking back I should have choose internal to make the drive bigger. So I need to know how to change it.
 
What Android version are you running? That question it asked would make sense for 6 or later, but I'm not sure what it would mean otherwise.

If you are running 6 then which is the right answer would depend on how fast the card is - you would want a very fast card to use as internal. But I've also not found anything that suggests it got upgraded to that version.
 
Which you should have chosen then depends on what you are using the storage for. Media are fine on the "external" SD. It's only if you need the space for apps that "internal" is advantageous, but then you need a fast card (and remember that you can't remove it if installed as internal, since it will be encrypted to only work in that device and anyway your apps etc will break if you remove it).

Changing should be an option via the storage menu, just remember that it will reformat the card and so all data currently on it will be lost unless backed up first.

BTW there is no reason whatsoever to think that this will help with your problem of the tablet crashing and Chrome hanging up.
