so I tried to do it for the 3rd time just now - after keyed in, dl and install - upgrade restarted reboot windows is unable to boot up- can't recover, can't auto discover issue, can't fix with usb, dvd, os disk, can't refresh - only way is to format - anyone having issues with this?
 
I had the same issue. I opened a PDF file and Windows 8 blew up. None of the recovery methods worked, and restore points didn't work.

Luckily I have Server 2012 Essentials up and client backups running. I was able to bare-metal restore back to where I was the night before in about 35 min.
 
running win 8 pro with free media upgrade that I just got the key for a day ago - my win 8 keeps not booting up after upgrading to media center
