Install Windows 8 on New SSD using USB Recovery Media

Bought an HP ENVY 15t-j000 Quad Edition (E4T17AV) and i want to put my SSD in there as its much faster than the factory installed hard drive. I booted up (with old hard drive in there) and made USB Recovery Media. I popped the new SSD in and plugged in the USB and booted it up. It loaded the usb recovery options and I tried to do a fresh install of Windows 8. But I'm running into problems. It won't install correctly. Even when it copies all the files to the hard drive, when it restarts, it shows a message saying the restoration wasn't complete. Anyone have ideas what I'm doing wrong?
