Run boot-repair again but only to create the bootinfo results and post the link it gives you. It will show us more details what is where.

1. Do you still have both XP and win8?

2. You seem to have a wubi Kubuntu installation boot files, but not the installation itself. Are these left overs from earlier when you had wubi? In that case you can delete sda1/wubildr and sda1/wubildr.mbr. They might get in the way of the booting process.

Everything else looks fine, if it can't boot something is broken in the windows boot process, not grub2/ubuntu.

Please help me ... I have the same problems.. even when I try the Windows Bootloader I get this error..

file: \BCD
Status: 0xc00000098

I did boot-repair..
Here is my log file after Boot-Repair... http://paste.ubuntu.com/5739884/

In the advance options of Boot-Repair in other options, I can't click on 'Repair Windows Boot Files'

Just so that You know, I made a new partition in the Windows 8 of 30 GB and I have installed ubuntu on that! My Windows still exists and I can see it in the drives... PLEASE HELP ME GET BACK TO IT! I SWEAR, I"LL NEVER MESS UP IN SUCH A WAY!
I had a pre-installed Windows 8 and I removed the Secure Boot and all to get the Ubuntu Installed and now I can't go back to WINDOWS 8 which is really a disaster!

PLEASE, JUST PLEASE REPLY SOON!

Did you turn off fast boot before installing Ubuntu?

You may be able to boot a recovery or repair directly from UEFI? Otherwise you need a Windows 8 repair flash drive.
