Answer 2

ROM chips are embedded into different parts of the motherboard on different models; however, the chips are identifiable based on printed text and how many connection pins they use. ROM chips don't look out of the ordinary from other embedded chips and often feature 28 or 32 connector pins over two parallel sides or all four sides respectively. Some chips feature more connector pins and they can be inserted into (usually brown) sockets or soldered into the board. The writing on the chip is a tell-tale identifier: the ROM chip will feature a mix of the BIOS manufacturer's name on it, the word "BIOS" and the model number. On-board ROM chips with program data will carry the motherboard manufacturer's name instead. While not guaranteed, the ROM chips are usually placed near the motherboard's Southbridge/Chipset and the peripheral card slots.
