This is what I meant on previous posts,
Also If I attached USB recovery media, I can't to recover it directly from USB,
just when extract swim files with DISM command, I can, but with this method, there is no recovery partition created on my HDD partitions,
I think I need to re setup my HDD as UEFI (GPT disk), then try to recover from USB recovery media,
I tried before to convert My HDD from MBR to GPT, but my HDD is hidden in the bios and i couldn't to boot, , and i had to return it back to MBR to show in the bios again.

Now, How to re setup my HDD as UEFI (GPT disk) and restore it as factory default as originally???

I think you have lost your recovery partition, You are not going to be able to recover. You will have to Clean Install See this thread you'll want to set up your bootable install media, to install UEFI GPT. If your not comfortable to do it this yourself I suggest you send or take your notebook to the Asus Repair Location
It appears that your hard drive is currently set up MBR to return it back to GPT you'll bring up a command prompt F10 will do this when you have the install window up in the beginning of your clean install and run diskpart to Clean, then convert to GPT, then I would just install to the blank GPT disk.
Also you can check out this thread on the eightforum There is no point in, installing 8 and then upgrading to 8.1 since your clean installing anyway.

This may be a solution for a ISO http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832416789
