ROM memory in a computer normally contains BIOS (Basic Input/Output System), which is the first program to run once a computer is switched on, before the operating system loads. It initializes and tests the system hardware. BIOS can be modified by flashing a new firmware, though it is not normally recommended.

ROM is involatile because its name means Read Only Memory, hinting that the data stored on it cannot be altered. The word involatile means long term and not changeable.

read-only memory
ram stands for random access memory while rom is read only memoryRAM is Random Access Memory that is used to store data that is from using desktop applications or web browser based functions. ROM is Read Only Memory, ROM is used for only one thing and that is to read the memory that is integrated within the CD that you put in the computer. You can remember what ROM does by just remembering Read Only Memory, because all it does is what the name implies, which is to read data.
circut board - the read-only memory (ROM)
In the computing world, permanent data is stored in ROM (Read Only Memory).
Rom is a non-volatile memory. A computer system needs it because it stores the data permanently. If there is no ROM the data can be stored only until the system is on. Once the system is off, all the data stored in RAM(volatile memory) will be lost. So, ROM is used to store the data for a desired period of time.
There is no such thing as "random only memory" The two main types are: RAM: random access memory ROM: read only memory ROM is memory that does not change, it is "read only" the system reads it, uses it and never changes what is stored within it RAM allows random access types, reading, writing, moving. Its fully adaptable to whatever it is asked to do from moment to moment.
ROM, as in CD-ROM, refers to the way in which you access the stored data, i.e. Read-Only Memory. RAM (Random Access Memory) is the amount of memory a computer can access to complete a given action. The more RAM, the quicker the action can be performed.
