After searching other forums I found a solution that worked for me. It was suggested that some OEM USB ports are very under powered and that plugging into a self-powered hub as opposed to the bus powered ports would solve the problem. My old palm m500 would not work on my hub so it was plugged ito the back of my Dell 4100. I assumed that the Axim cradle would also like to be plugged into the back of the machine. But it had the self disconnect and large file transfer problems as stated above. However when I shutdown and moved the plug onto the Hub. Voila problems gone. No more disconnects and I transfered a 100 MB file to My SD card.

Hope that this helps others.
