One thing I found was that the iso from the download is not exactly like a 'normal' Windows dvd.
If you boot the iso and choose to 'Repair your computer' the image recovery option does not work.
You get a message saying the operation is unable to proceed or something and that you should boot
from a repair disk.
So make sure you create a system repair disk for any future problems.


For my quirky reason I had removed the small boot partition and therefore cannot create a
repair disk. However I will keep the Windows 8 Enterprise 90 evalulation DVD for keeps
as it has all the necessary files to do the repair.

The repair disk I'm talking about is made via Control Panel.
