>Does Windows 8 not run on UEFI systems without Secure Boot enabled?
It runs without any issues on machines with secure boot disabled.
>Or is this fix just due to pre-installed OEM Windows 8 configurations with Secure Boot enabled?
Yes, although the user can disable secure boot, it's an additional step and also reduces the security of their Windows 8 boot (if they're still using it).
