Installing Ubuntu 14.04 before Windows8.1 Error 0xc000000e the BCD of your PC is missing or contains error

1

I install Windows usually before Ubuntu, but because there wasn't Windows after experiencing some hard drive problem I installed Ubuntu-Gnome-14.04 before Windows, but I am unable to install either Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2 afterwards.

The error I encountered every time I try to make the installation using the USB key (because the DVD drive of my laptop is broken) is:

Windows Boot Manager

Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.

  File: \Boot\BCD
  Status: Oxc000000e
  Info: The Boot Configuration Data for your PC is missing or contains error.

How do I solve it? Thanks.
