I have had my CD32 for a few months and just yesterday port 1 went 
fritzy.  It continues to generate a signal like one of the pins is 
constantly active (a fire button?).  I'm thinking it could be caused by 
static frying the interface chip (if there is one).  Has anyone 
experienced anything similar?  More importantly, can this be fixed easily?
