Apple Macintosh · ROM Version Numbers
This article explains how to determine the ROM
version of a Macintosh computer. Additional information on Macintosh
ROMs (various size) can be found bellow: Macintosh: ROM Size for Various Models
To find the ROM revision of a computer not listed in this article, use one of the following two described methods.
Apple System Profiler is the easiest. Launch the program and under the
System Profile tab, look in the Production information section for the
ROM revision.
Alternatively, you can use the Programmer's Interrupt Switch to determine the ROM version number of your Macintosh Computer.
1. Press the programmer's interrupt switch, or use the keyboard equivalent.
2. Type: DM 2AE
3. Press return.
- This displays the ROMbase global
which is located at memory address $0002AE. The ROMbase global is the
number located in offset 0 and 2. For example, a Quadra 660AV displays:
4080 0000 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
4. Type the ROMbase global. EXAMPLE: DM 40800000. The result is 5BF1 0FD1 0000 002A 077D XXXX XXXX XXXX
5. The machine type and ROM version are at offset 8 or 077D in this
case which is from a 660av Macintosh Computer. You could also add the 8
bytes to the memory address and have done DM 40800008 and the first two
bytes would be the type and ID.

Notes:
1. The ROM version does not necessarily reflect slight differences
in ROM sets. For example, the Macintosh IIfx ROMs are slightly
different from the Macintosh IIci ROMs, even though the ROM version
number is the same.
2. With the Centris 660AV and Quadra 840AV, a new 2 MB ROM was introduced.
