OK, so i've been to sleep, woken up and these are the Apple Checksum's for the ROM's:

SE (800k): B2E362A8
SE (FDHD): B306E171

Wierdly, they share the same Major version, sub version and sub-release number - only the checksum differs.

The Apple checksum is calculated by taking the low 32 bits of the sum of every unsigned 16 bit word in the rom, except for the first 4 bytes.

Thank you, @Kai Robinson. :) I hope you feel refreshed.

So, how is the correct checksum identified? I realize the checksumis not labeled on the ROM chips. Reprogram? My apologies; I am lost. :(
