   	Well the video I watched which is on that page shows an attempt   
   to boot Windows 8 but it goes to Ubuntu instead.  You must be rewatching   
   the original Secure Boot enabled video.   
      
   	But his "no problem" means that Windows 8 which is "the problem" does   
   not boot.  It does not get to the login screen   
   as seen in the video which URL you posted.  It goes back to   
   Grub or whatever screen was used to choose the OS.  In the   
   early part of the video it shows the UEFI bios screen with   
   instructions as to disable/enable or to change the setting on   
   the UEFI.
