If you purchased a VPS this information will arrive in an email with the subject "New Virtual Private Server Information" and if you purchased a Dedicated Server this information will arrive in an email with the subject "Your server's new login credentials".
Now with this information (IPv4 Address, User: Administrator, Password: Sent via Email) open the "Remote Desktop Connection" application, pictured below.
In the computer name field, enter the IP Address provided via email, and press connect. You will then be prompted for credentials. Username: Administrator Password: Provided via Email
