Thankyou Jerry, Rob N4RPS and goldfinger for your comments.
Yesterday, I had a look at the Nehal J Wani's LL/win8.1 dual boot installation video again, that Jerry posted, & after three attempts (largely down to my inexperience) now have a fully functioning LL/win8.1 dual booted Asus G750JS with UEFI on.
Yes, I had the same problem that you mentioned, Rob, with the text wrapping issue in Wani's video, which confused things about where character spaces in the code should be. Saw the comment below his video at the Youtube website - thanks.
I have posted some difficulties that I experienced with the above mentioned dual-boot, and how I got around these, in the following post:
Linux Lite Forum / Software Support / Installing Linux Lite / Dual Boot Linux Lite and Windows 8 / Reply#26.
Many thanks for your interest & help - much appreciated.
Regards
Mike
