Can't boot into Windows 8.

[Hugger]

I have a pc that runs Windows 7 Pro x64.I followed the directions on this forum for a dual boot system placing Windows 8 on its own hard drive. I set Windows 7 as the default OS.
This was all good until I tried to boot into Windows 8. I'm not given the option to do so and don't have the knowledge to fix this problem.
Any help will be appreciated.

Re-install, it takes only 15 minutes to do so

OK. And do what differently so that I don't have this problem?
Thanks.

Deleted the partition that had Windows 8 in it. Did a clean install on a different partition.
Followed instructions carefully.At no time was I given any choices for a dual boot set up.
Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks.

Can you select drive that 8 is on by pushing a select boot key at the restart? F-12 or F-10 or whatever works for your computer then select the drive that 8 is on?

Have you selected Custom (Advanced) in the next window after clicking Install button?
Same as the screenshot in step 5 in this Tutorial:

MYZR, Will work on that tonight or tomorrow.
What I want to do is learn why I'm not given the dual boot option when installing the OS.
Thanks.Hugger

I've tried it both ways. I wonder if for some reason I need to reset the BIOS?
Motherboard is a Gigabyte EP45-UD3 with an Intel E8400 cpu.
The only security app that I use that could possibly cause a problem is MS's EMET.

 

[Hugger]

Yes. That's what's driving me nuts.

Go into Windows 7 and use EasyBCD and see if you see the Bootloader for Windows 8
