What the subject says. Does this device use an embedded Windows key, either in it's BIOS or UEFI?

 

I have one that desperatly needs a full clean install, but I don't want to do it yet until I have confirmation the key is embedded and will activate automaticalluy.

Yes it is. You don't need it for a clean install, Windows qill find the key and activate automatically. You can use the following tools to find the key
