Hi ya'll,

	I just started having problems with our A2500/30 here at work.
It was working fine until a day or so ago and then suddenly hte serial
and the floppy don't work.  I can boot the machine fine from the hard
disk but if I try to use the serial port or read (or format) a floppy it
fails.  I'm wondering if this isn't a problem with the CIA chip.  If so
I'll just go out and get one and plug it in.  Any info will be
appreciated.

ps: By the way, the Amiga passes diagnostics just fine on boot.
