You cannot boot to Windows 8 if you did not install both Operating Systems in dual boot mode. Dual boot means you can boot your Operating System either from Unbuntu or Windows 8. However, you have to consider the following important factors before creating a dual boot system.
1. Both Operating Systems must be installed in a separate drivers of the hard disk.
2. Make sure that your computer has enough power and capacity to handle the dual boot.
3. Make sure to properly install the Operating Systems.
You can watch a video tutorial on how to create a dual boot of Windows 8 and Ubuntu here:
