[REQUEST] Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro (76CNxxWW) Whitelist Removal

[RySean]

Here's a BIOS download link: http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobi...cn31ww.exe

BIOS version is 76cn31ww.

I'm trying to install an Intel 7260 AC Dual band card rather than the default 7260 N Single band card. Stupid whitelists :-(

Yeah, same problem for me , got AC intel wifi card in ebay and unauthorized bios messy appeared...

I bought the Intel 7260NGW AC which was supposed to be an easy swap but instead I get the unauthorized NIC message. Very frustrating that this awesome laptop comes with such a crappy NIC considering all communication with it is wireless and then they won't even let you put something better in.

Here are the results from my Yoga2Pro with 76cn31ww bios.

EDIT: Originally attached the wrong file, sorry. The correct one seems too large to post here, so I shared it here:

Note, the HiDPI screen seems to have impacted the screencaps in the rar file, I'll see if I can run the tool again with a lower resolution to see if that helps.

I also have this issue and here's the result.rar: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17713/result.rar

It froze my keyboard/mouse and gave me an Error 280. I had to do a hard reboot.

I hope this is possible, it'd be really great to use this card!

Thank you for your time.

Just curious if there was an update on this. It seems we all got the same error messages like the 280 and the keyboard/mouse lockups when trying to run utility. Is there anything else we need to do? Thanks.

Ok, I think your notebook may be BIOS write protected, but let us try,

RUn this app as admin and upload result.rar:
