Windows 8/8.1 Login issue

[jayisgod2]

I'm having an issue with a new Windows 8 laptop - I have the laptop domain joined (no issues there), but when I try to log in, the PC is defaulting to logging in using a Microsoft account - If I try to login using a domain account, I get a message saying "Please type your email address in the following format: someone@example.com".

I have tried by using domain\username, username@domain, and no luck at all. If I use the fingerprint login option, I am logged in to the domain account without any issues at all.

I am only able to manually login to the domain account by choosing "Sign-in Options" and choosing "Domain Logon". Once I do that, I am able to use the domain account without any issue.

We have another Windows 8 laptop, from the same manufacturer, in the same OU and with the exact same GPOs applied, and it does not have this problem. I'm at a loss to explain why this is happening, and I have not been able to find a single other example of this happening.

Does anyone have any input on this?

Thanks

Is there any differences between GPO's on both Windows 8.1 machines?

I started having to log in with a "Microsoft account" immediately after downloading a Solitaire game from Microsoft's "store" (at which I had to create a Microsoft account in order to download)

Is the device actually picking up the policies and in the correct order?

Run RSOP in a cmd prompt on two machines and see if they match.
