Q: Bootcamp not booting after install rEFInd for dual boot

This is my 1st post on this site, hope I don't screw up.

I tried to install rEFInd boot manager and screwed up my Bootcamp so windows 8 will not boot. It does show up on boot holding the option key, but it does nothing but a black screen when selected. Same when selecting to boot from CD/DVD, black screen. I've read a few posts similar to this but he suggestions from "LonerT" did not fix my issue. I'm hoping LonerT or someone of his knowledge base is available to help me, I really don't want to reinstall window if it can be helped. :-)

Here's the information requested by LonerT in previous posts:
