3. When you mentioned that by uninstalling the Xe graphics driver you can prevent any crashes from happening, do you mean that you uninstalled the latest driver and then everything worked out as it was supposed to or do you mean that you not only uninstalled the driver but disable the Xe graphics as well?
4. You mentioned that AMT has been configured, can you please share with us what steps you followed to configure it, if possible, if you followed a guide or a document you can share it with us or send the link where you get it from, if not you can let us know what the steps you took by just send them written in your next response.
I have tried installing the driver provided by Lenovo, the driver provided by Windows update, the driver provided by Intel Driver & Support Assistant, and the latest BETA driver. However, all of them will lead to the igdkmdn64.sys BSOD.
By uninstalling the Xe graphic driver, the name of the device became "Microsoft basic display adapter". Remote desktop and SOL provided by AMT can work in this state without crashing the system. Booting into safe mode can also prevent Windows from crashing.
The admin mode provides the option to access the machine without user consent; this mode requires a third-party Certificate for Intel AMT to validate the access. The Certificate will include a PKI DNS suffix (usually the domain of the company) and needs to be added to the MEBx BIOS.
For me, disabling the Xe graphics driver and the AMT behaves as I would expect: Remote Desktop as well as SOL work properly. All I want to know is how to use Remote Desktop and SOL properly without disabling the Xe driver, and I think we're getting pretty far from that topic.
Please contact Lenovo first; they are the system manufacturers and have access to custom drivers and chipset board firmware; they need to review if any PC settings are damaging the performance. If you already have a Lenovo case number, please share it with us.

After a system crash my HDMI TV stopped working. I fiddled around with it unplugging and re-plugging the TV and after a while it started working again. After a few weeks my system crashed this morning as I was installing another program and now the TV stopped working again.
I ran sudo xrandr and it does see anything on HDMI-1 or HDMI-2. I've tried different HDMI cords, converters, and different HDMI connections on the TV without luck. I am able to plug in a monitor to the VGA connection see the desktop. The monitor is also choppy on the VGA connection and sometimes super slow when I remote in via TightVNC from my windows laptop.
Assuming the problem is not with your TV try installing the closed source drivers from Intel -graphics-update-tool-linux-os-v2.0.4 and disabling secure boot -guide-installing-intel-graphics-driver-ubuntu-16-04/
