If the chips have window, that means they are not normal ROM chips (which are "programmed" by the manufacturer) but EPROM chips which can be programed using special hardware programmers and a computer. Taking that into account, it's not strange that they were made by AMD. The window is used to erase the contents of the chip by using ultraviolet light. After that they can be reprogrammed using the hardware I've mentioned before.
