i wanted to install ubuntu and windows alongside but I accidently installed Ubuntu 13.10 using the option "LVM" although i've not selected erase disk and fresh install. Now my systems boots direclt into Ubuntu and I'm unable to see my Windows files on hard drive so I'm unable to access my old data (documents, movies, music, pictures) stored on Windows 8? Can someone help me to bring back my old Windows?

I don't know what went wrong. But you had to pick an partition to install ubuntu as second operating system. Retrieving the files from the windows drive should be possible. But you will have to re-install windows, if you still want it. Be carefull when you do this 'cause you will have to look out for not deleting the ubuntu files.
Maybe you have luck if windows installer finds the existing files.
To retrieve the files you have to go the filemanager under devices should stand your harddrive under or above computer. When you click you should be possible to see ALL files on your previously installed windows drive.
I hope I helped you out here!
