For Win8 OEM devices there is no key on a sticker. The key is embedded to the BIOS.

The Windows 8 Product Key Viewer should work and read the correct produkt key.

// Edit: R-W Everything also shows the key under ACPI->MSDM

NirSoft ProduKey:

NirSoft makes tools that rival SysInternals in their usefulness; except nobody remember's their name (not even me). They're like the "that guy from terminator" - but for software.
