Maybe, if the files were truncated : There's a distinct limit to the
file size you can sync, sometimes it just gets lost in transfer.

My best shot would be to grab windows media encoder from here :
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/9series/encoder/default.aspx

You might not want to use the full encoder interface (though it's
handy to have !). But when installed, there's a utility called
"Windows media file editor" which allows you to chop up files.

Install, look under the Encoder menu then Utilities and it's listed
there. You can load your audio file and set a mark-in and mark-out
point, say every 10-15 minutes. Chop your file up into 4-5 manageable
bits and sync those to the PPC instead. They may well be fractionally
larger than the original file, but they shouldn't be broken at least.
