Asteroids Rom questions

Hello,

     I was talking to a friend today, and he was telling me that you can't use
windowed roms on an Asteroids board. I've seen Asteroids boards with windowed
roms, but he claims you need the "prom" style roms for it to work. Is there an
encryption in this that I don't know of?? Can you burn a set of 2716's and
replace the "prom" style roms?? Please help if you can,

Thank You,
Michael Kelley
