I ran into that a few times where it didn't make sense either (ICE powered
up, target board powered up, etc).  It turned out that the connector where
the power supply cord plugs into the ICE 2000 isn't what it should be.  I
got rid of my problems by pushing it in REAL HARD.  I can sometimes even see
the lights on the front of the unit blink if the power cable isn't
absolutely in all the way.

Keep in mind that the ICE often shows the true I/O state several cycles
late, although the bits are actually right inside the processor.
