Are you trying to login to this pc using a domain account? Then verify this password is correct using another pc in the same domain.. Else you can reset the password.
Rarely I have seen, though the password is correct, due to some issue it wont sync with some windows 8 pcs. May be its due to temporary issue which prevents that particular pc from contacting the domain controller..
Upon restarts it should be gone.. But if the problem persists disjoin and rejoin to the domain may have a good chance of fixing this..
Your other account in the domain may be able to connect may be using previously used cached credentials..

Is this domain controller server 2003 or something? This issue I have encountered extensively under 2003 server and windows 8 and finally ended up with a upgrade to 2008 r2 which fixed it to grater extent. Almost ok..

if you are trying to login to a domain this may happen when the password is not cached on your system or your machine is not able to connect to domain controller.
Try login in to the laptop from the Domain network (Say office) atleast once. then u should be able to login.

B Matore,
I realize you verified the password and have ensured that it is correct. However, what Hetti is suggesting involves clearing cached credentials in case the system is holding on to a password that is not correct. Can you verify you have cleared any cached credentials as outlined in Hetti's response above?
Thank you,

My issue turned out to be that Windows 8.1 changed the keyboard from English US to English UK or vice versa can't remember which way it was. My password contained special characters which meant when I restarted the computer I was typing in the wrong special character. This issue has since been resolved, cant tell you which windows update resolved this. Keyboard layout stays the same even after restarts now.
Sorry for not updating this earlier.
