Windows 8 won't boot, BCD error

My Windows 8 laptop has a boot problem. When Windows tries to boot, I get this error message:

Boot configuration data is missing  
File: \BCD  
Error code: 0xc0000034  

So as suggested I booted to the console and tried:

bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /scanos
bootrec /rebuildbcd

After the last command I got:

Total identified win installations:1
[1] C:\Windows 
Add installation to boot list? 

I typed y so I want to add installation, but got a reply:

The requested system device cannot be found. 

As a solution I found a diskpart - select and activate OS partition, so I selected OS partition and typed:

active

I got a reply that:

The selected disk is not a fixed MBR disk. 
The active command can only be used on fixed MBR disks. 

How to fix this problem, to get Windows 8 boot properly? My laptop is a repair of a previously working PC.

This page helped me restore the BCD on my Intel RSTe Raid SSD Configuration for Windows 7, on UEFI ASRock X79 Extreme 9 after upgrading the Bios.

diskpart
list disk
select disk 0 #Select the desired disk
create partition efi size=100
list partition #Make sure that the 100mb partition is selected
format quick fs=fat32 label="System"
assign letter=B
create partition msr size=128
list partition #Check for errors
list vol
select vol 3 #Use the number corresponding to your windows installation
assign letter=C
exit

Now copy the EFI files by typing:

mkdir B:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot
xcopy /s C:\Windows\Boot\EFI\*.* B:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot

Now we will set the boot configuration data by typing:

b:
cd EFI\Microsoft\Boot
bcdedit /createstore BCD
bcdedit /store BCD  /create {bootmgr} /d “Windows Boot Manager”
bcdedit /store BCD /create /d “Windows 7” /application osloader
#This will return a GUID, referred to later as {guid}
bcdedit /store BCD /set {bootmgr} default {guid}
bcdedit /store BCD /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi
bcdedit /store BCD /set {bootmgr} displayorder {default}
#Now it's not {bootmgr} anymore but {default}!
bcdedit /store BCD /set {default} device partition=c:
bcdedit /store BCD /set {default} osdevice partition=c:
bcdedit /store BCD /set {default} path \Windows\System32\winload.efi
bcdedit /store BCD /set {default} systemroot \Windows
exit
