Because the motherboard *has* UEFI may not actually require you to *use* it. Check and see if it has a legacy BIOS mode. If it does, you can use that and keep going. If not, then using UEFI requires (at the least) creation of a UEFI boot partition and changes to the bootloader configuration.

I had a failure last week and have just received a new motherboard to replace the old one. I see that it has a lot of wonderful features for Windows that I don't need, among them UEFI.
Am I going to have trouble running Fedora 21 on it? I guess I need to know that before installing it. The instruction manual is of little help, mainly describes installing it as a Windows 8 system using the included installation disk, none of which I will ever see.
