Boot screen of Windows 8 after installing GRUB

Hi,
I formatted my HDD and installed Windows 8.1 onto it. Before installing Arch, Windows 8 booted with progress circle and motherboard logo. After installing Grub, only progress circle left on boot screen (no windows or motherboard logo). And just before showing windows logon screen- motherboard logo flashes for a while.
I know this question isn't straight Arch related, but does anybody know how to force windows to show any logo or show nothing?

EDIT: I am adding movie, to visualize problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm0Ji3CkWQ4

Re: Boot screen of Windows 8 after installing GRUB

Looks like you have an UEFI-Motherboard, about which i have no experience, but i guess the problem might be some sort of grub incompatibility of windows 8.
Beside the graphical issues, everything boots fine?
