Nikon S2550 upload pics?

I have inherited a Nikon Coolpix S2550, with no cables or info and having bought a charger and suitable usb cable online am having trouble uploading the photos from the camera on to my laptop. I have made sure that the settings are correct for updates on my laptop, and the cable is specifically for my camera, but it just says that it has 'failed' (I have windows 7 by the way).Im not sure what to do next?

Many thanks
