The stepper only came with 4 wires connected to them and I identified the pairs by jumping two wires and feeling which one made the motor harder to turn. After figuring out the pairs I wired them so that the pairs were side by side.

Thanks Steve,
I wired up my end stops like so: there are three connections on the end stops COM, NO, and NC. I have it set up so that I am only using NC and COM but I am changing that right after I finish this post. I found this really helpful article that I urge anyone who stumbles upon this with the same problem read. [t00tiereprap.wordpress.com] Now I will follow these directions. I also just realized that my end stop wiring had caused +5v to be sent into my computer. This made the computer shut down for safety and disconnect the usb modem and port to protect itself as well. I will solve this end stop problem and hopefully that will get everything else going. Many thanks to all!
