I have been reading several posts on errors to see if was already solved and , after admiring your knowledge and see that it had not happened before, I have decided to create this post to see if I can lend a hand you .
 
The problem started yesterday when , after installing a dual boot between Fedora and perfect Windows 8, it occurred to me to install some nvidia drivers to optimize graphics for linux . After installing I rebooted and I was surprised that Fedora would not start properly finished loading the logo and then remained a static background . After this I used the LiveCD (by USB) I installed Fedora with his manager and I formated the partitions corresponding to Fedora then reinstall setup automatic partitioning. Fedora installed successfully, but when I restart the computer , I no longer appears Windows 8 as an option in GRUB.
 
If I go into the BIOS itself I get an option called UEFI OS , which I understand is Windows ( damaged in any way ), but when the start effort with it I get this message ( "system boot order not found" ) followed by more things for me unreadable .
 
I tried with a DVD Recovery Windows 8 and within the command shell , run - bootrec / fixmbr - bootrec / fixboot and - bootrec / rebuildbcd . The first two were running smoothly in the third I recognize a partition with Windows on D: \ Windows ( The D drive is actually a second drive where I keep the data, but here consider the partition with that name) , but without any result .
 
I have also tried to use the Super Grub Disk, but I did not recognize any operating system (I think that to boot from the DVD, I had to remove the UEFI , but only shows me Fedora and UEFI OS).
 
Installing Windows 8 and Fedora is made of a single 128GB SSD , another drive ( D ) which I use as storage.
 
I hope you can help me , because I can not think of anything else to do. Thank you.

I have enough experience with Testdisk but I can not help you on this. It is simply gibberish because if you choose GPT volumes appear and if all those seleccionases Intel (which is your current situation since you have installed on basic disk), also correct some other displays. 
Sorry, but I have no patience for this. 
Wait another help.

Ok, actually my first idea was to format the drive and install W8 again (I do not care because I have the data to another HDD), but it turns out I have very hand-W8 installation disk, so trying to fix it. 
 
One last question: 
The fact is that I have a serial number on the back of the computer to W8. If I under ISO with Windows 8 and install on a DVD, it will be worth me No that I have there? Or I can only disc that came with the laptop with me?

I guess finally I W8 partitions are faulty. 
 
I find these errors curious therefore funcion everything the first time (W8 and Fedora) did nothing but delete partiones Fedora (from its own installer) and recreate them with their own automatic system. The first time everything right and then wrong, I fail to understand, really. 
 
Tell me if you find a solution, and if not, try to find a picture of W8 to format and reinstall the OS.
