Hello!
Not sure if this is the right place, so if there's a better, please let me know, but I have a Lenovo think center that I acquired that I want to use as a simple home server, got an i5 6700 in it, may need some tweaks, but should be good. My problem is it came from a now defunct company and it wants my corporate email to download the profile. This is after I tried to factory reset it and delete all of the items. When I turn it on it asks for my corporate email, when I try to type iny Hotmail it says it's wrong and gives me the option for a security key USB. I've downloaded the win 11 installer onto a flash drive, but it jus goes straight to the corporate login request. I can get to bios, but admittedly I'm not sure what to do from there, as I'm not seein the proper options.
Any suggestions on how to flash this so I can use it for Plex, Valheim, Minecraft, and personal storage would be greatly appreciated.
Also, I have a pair of hdds imma use for the storage, am I other thinking this and just need to toss the original hdd?
Linux is your easiest bet. I forget how windows does its MDM, or if it’s easy to bypass. But it knows it’s a corporate computer so it’s going to ask for the corporate login and auto provision itself for it. If a reinstall didn’t work then you’d have to do Somme other trickery to bypass it.
Or just install Linux and have it not care. Ubuntu and Linux mint are pretty noob friendly.
