My answer to #2:
After downloading your private key, it's now time to connect to your server! You need to download PuTTY and PuTTYGen. Links are at the bottom of this post. Open up PuTTYGen. Now, click "Load." Open up your key.pem. Now, click "Save private key." Click "Yes" and chose where you want to save it. Make sure it's the EXACT same name as the key you got from Amazon. Now, open PuTTY. Enter ubuntu@{server's public DNS}. The public DNS can be found in your control panel by clicking on the GPU instance. Then go to SSH, expand it and click Auth. Browse for the key you made in PuTTYGen. Then, click open. You may have to do this a few times. You'll know when it connects when a dialog box appears. It should say "SECURITY BREACH!" but it's not. Click yes. Then, follow the next step!
