Windows 10: I have a new Lenovo Yoga 2 in 1 that I can't get past the initial boot process

When the computer first boots, it goes through a setup process that apparently is trying to complete the setup based on an AutoPilot/Intune configuration. This system was purchased as a personal computer and will not be used in a corporate environment. It fails at step 3 with the error message "Registering your device for mobile management 6,0x80180014". There appears to be no way to mitigate this, and I have done a full reset that reinstalled the factory image, only do get to the same point.

Lenovo Reveals the Yoga 730 and Yoga 530 2-in-1 Laptops with Alexa Support

At MWC this year, Lenovo announced two new additions to their Yoga line of laptops. The Yoga 730 comes in 13-inch and 15-inch models while the Yoga 530 is only available in the 14-inch flavor. They feature up to Intel's latest 8th Gen Intel Core i7 processor with the Yoga 730 having the option of coming with a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 discrete graphics card. Apart from conventional input methods, consumers can also interact with the Yoga 730 through voice since it comes with built-in Alexa support. The integrated far-field microphone allows Alexa and Cortana to listen and respond to the user with relative ease.

The Yoga 730 is equipped with a UHD IPS touchscreen display while the Yoga 530 is fitted with a FHD IPS touchscreen. Lenovo is also offering the optional Active Pen 2 with up to 4096 levels of sensitivity for those users who love to write, draw, or jot down notes on their laptops. The new Yoga laptops are thinner and lighter than ever too. The 15-inch Yoga 730 comes in at 1.89 kg and the 13-inch model at 1.12 kg. The 14-inch Yoga 530 weighs 1.6 kg. The 13-inch Yoga 730 with Lenovo Active Pen 2 included starts at €999 (VAT included) and the 15-inch model with Lenovo Active Pen 2 included starts at €1,099 (VAT included).

Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro WIFI drama

I would like to install an Intel 7260ngw Dual Band WLAN card but my Yoga 2 BIOS insists that only the factory Intel 7260n will work. Why?

Note: this isn't a new issue, and I don't think it's a MS issue (there are suggestions it's a BIOS whitelist problem caused by Lenovo), but I can't resolve it with my machine and am looking for more resources...:
