Yes. Every motherboard has a Rom chip on it. Typically, the one most noteworthy is the Rom chip that holds the information for the motherboard. It carries boot instructions, the setup program, BIOS programs, and POST routine. This chip is usually not altered. Older motherboards carried removeable ROM chips that could be replaced, but are now mostly onboard or soldered on permanently.
