I don't remember which ROM is which any more, but given the copyright
dates shown (1981, 1983), it may be that infamous ROM that people had
to upgrade to in those ancient PCs.  If so, the only source I know of
is Komputerwerk, Inc. at 1-800-423-3400.  You can check those numbers
with them.  If that's not the chip, I haven't the faintest idea (short
of another dead IBM PC) where to get one.  Good luck!
