Just put a new HD in, and did a clean install of Windows 8 RTM x64. Had it on previously, and all ran fine.
After this install, one issue I have is with the MAIL app on metro. I click on it, it opens, then closes. If I click on it in the top left of the screen on the open bar, its there, and does the same thing.
Any idea how to fix this?

Same issue in this thread: http://www.eightforums.com/browsers-mail/8390-mail-app-crashing-startup.html

Haven't been able to load it since. Having to do a re-install of the OS isn't really an option.

I've had that happen to my Slacker Radio App, and one or two others. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it didn't help. For me, the app was working fine one day and then quit the next. Like you, it would open full screen for a second or two then disappear. It showed up at the top left like it was running but it wasn't. I even tried doing the Windows 8 refresh but it didn't help. Reinstalling Windows 8 and reinstalling the app fixed it.
