Firstly are you using the official drivers or firefly's drivers? Firefly's are generally more stable, especially for WinXP.

I get "serious error" recoveries from time to time, I just click OK, no problems... I think Doesn't fix the underlying cause of course.

Make sure you upgrade your drivers and check your GP32's connection. My PC-Link is loose so my GP32 never shows up as connected unless I hold it in. You'll hear a tone when it connects (and another when it disconnects) in XP at least.

Just get a SMC card reader, its simple and it instantly fixes all the problems. (And I really didn't want to spen money on it before, but I saw one soo chep, that I bought it )

orig fw -> pc link -> press select -> data restored.

I, too, didn't lose any data yet
And I have 6 SMCs regurlary changing in my GP32

I lost data about once a day when I was switching cards between the gp32 and the card reader, so I don't use the reader anymore
