Not sure if this'll help or not, but I had a similar issue with Space Station recently. Row 8 of the lamp matrix would go off and on randomly, couldn't figure it out.
Finally tracked it down to the wire in the IDC connector on the main board. Re-pined that guy with a new connector and no more issues since.
I guess the vibrations of playing (or my awesome nudge factor) would cause that wire to shift and make poor contact.
Just another attack vector to consider.
Thanks,
Steven
