that does not seem an answer to me.  

Yes, an unsuccessful reformat is a red flag, but the problem problem probably 
existed download or no download.

should one download and wipe the chip after each set of photos?  

I would worry about the $1.98 chip reader and the software encompassing it.

I notice the new iMacs do not have a built in chip reader.  my econoCompacs and 
cheapAcers both do.

My X+gigabite chips hold a thousand images.  I download as I use, and when the 
chip is finally filled, I store it full, and install a new chip.
