This should not be a problem in any Mega.  I have used four different
megas (one pre-production model, and two others with different board
revs) which originally held 2 chip TOS ROMs.  I modified them myself
for use with 6 chip EPROMs (which is what we use here during the
development cycle). I don't like to point fingers, but it looks like
maybe the person who made the modification for your TOS ROMs slipped up
somehow.
