I have Windows 8 Pro x64 installed through Bootcamp, everything was working fine until I upgraded to Mavericks. After upgrading it didn't show in the Boot menu, Finder and in Disk Utility it was greyed-out.
I formatted and merged the 10.9 Recovery partition with Macintosh HD thinking that there was too many partitions for MBR to handle.
I think this got Windows to show in the Boot menu but every time I boot into it I get "A disk read error has occurred..." or something similar.
Maybe Mavericks' Recovery partition erased some of the Bootloader?
I really need to get the data from this partition so once I get it all I won't be too fussed.
Thanks.
