Once you receive the disc from Microsoft Store, I would suggest you to perform a Startup repair using Windows 8 installation disc and check.

Startup Repair is a Windows 8 system recovery tool that can fix certain problems, such as missing or damaged system files.


To perform Automatic repair on Windows 8 computer follow these steps:
a. Insert the media such as (USB or DVD) and restart your computer.
b. Press F12 key (typically this is F12, but it can differ between computer manufacturers) and choose the drive that you inserted the installation media into.
c. Once the Windows Setup window appears, follow these steps:
d. Click next and select Repair your computer.
e. You will then see a blue screen and an option to choose. Choose the option Troubleshoot and select advanced options.
f. You may choose Automatic Repair from Advanced boot option.

Note: Modifying BIOS/ complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are at your own risk.
