It's not doing anything when I click Begin unlock bootloader..
Also, since we are doing this step by step, I have been powering down my phone so the battery stays charged.
Do I need to be starting from the very first step in doing so?
When I copy the Token into the text and click submit, it gives me 404 error.

My command window is telling me 'waiting for device' after typing to unlock it.
Do I have to redo any of these steps if I powered down?

No on redo-ing steps - you have fastboot that works, you have the 1.51.0000 bootloader - these do not go away.
Since I have never unlocked the bootloader on the 1.51.0000 method, I'm actually going to do so now, just so I know the steps, etc.
powering down shouldnt have any affect on the steps youve allready done. since you had everything working to get the identifier token,well assume its not a driver issue.
-try a reboot of the PC
-try different ports and usb cables
-make sure your phone is in "fastboot" mode and not hboot
-uninstall or stop htc sync,pda net,or any other program capable of comunicating with your phone.
hopefully one of those will get you recognized again
- create a zip file with a custom recovery image in it (named "recovery.img"), and an "android-info.txt" file with MainVer set to 2.42.0000 (see step #3 of this XDA post).
- using fastboot and the phone in RUU mode, flash this zip file ("fastboot flash zip zipfilename.zip") Again, see step #3 of the link above.

- power off the phone and boot into the custom recovery and flash the ErisMiscReset_v0.9.zip file (watch for any errors - stop if you see errors!).

I believe that error is simply the battery needs charged.
Failing that, you may need to transfer the files via a card reader mounted in the pc.
Try and charge or change the battery. You do not want it to die mid flash with one of those files
