    I would suggest enabling legacy boot menu which will give you the option to select either of the OS at early boot stage.

    1. Boot in to "Windows 8" and open an elevated command prompt.

    Elevated Command Prompt - Open in Windows 8

    2. Enter the below command exactly and reboot the machine.

    bcdedit /set {default} bootmenupolicy legacy

    Hope this will help.
