What do you mean by 'successfully'? Did it work for some time and then stopped?

Im sorry for that
What i mean is that upgrading 13.04 to 13.10 via "do-release-upgrade" done with no errors and then after installation i restart my laptop and then login , thats it after login my screen goes black with a mouse cursor

How does a live boot of 13.10 work?

So either 13.10 does not work out of the box or it's too heavy in a live boot. 13.04 is supported a couple of months more, and when that is ending you could try installing 13.10 again through the mini.iso (http://Good, now you have a solution a) or try Bodhi.
Some more memory would be a big help for the old computer. Should cost very little second hand.
