So I tired to get 14.04 to run - it failed big time, and the attmepts to resolve the no display issue didn't work - so I scraped odds and ends off the partition my /home was on - and reinstalled a 13.04 image. It runs but I cannot install anything from Software Center, the Plug-In Finder Service 2 for Firefox is in a loop - and when I try the odds and ends already mentioned about this problem I get nowhere.
I've gone into Systems & Settings > Software & Updates and tried the US server and the main server for updates. I get the following error(s) when I run '$sudo apt-get upgrade &&
sudo apt-get update'
W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/raring-security/universe/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.14 80]
An attempt to ping the IP works:

But yes the 404 is there at the site. So how do I get anything updated?
I'm clueless (most of the time ; -). Any ideas?
