[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1542545, member: 46727"] Not sure I would reinstall Windows 8 for now. Do you by chance have another OS X disk on hand? I realize your new iMac came with Mountain Lion but was wondering if you might have a Snow Leopard disk? If you do, you could boot with it and completely wipe the drive including the boot sector. Mountain Lion recovery does not completely wipe the drive which is why the Windows 8 recovery partition is still showing up. Let us know. [/QUOTE]
