Which PIC are you using? The recent dsPICs have some problems with
EEPROM. I think this may not be the case for you but you can still
check the errata.

Eg: From dsPIC30F4011/4012 errata (can not copy/paste from datasheet?!?!)
"The most significant bit of every fourth byte in data EEPROM may be
corrupted on any write operation. This write corruption may occur
while using either ProMate, MPLAB ICD2 or Run-Time Self-Programming
(RTSP)"

Subject: [PIC] Speaking of EEPROM...


Had a problem recently where the EEPROM data on a PIC got corrupted during 
operation.  I feel strongly that a power-surge/issue caused this.  Is this 
really possible?  Or are there other conditions that can cause this?

Cheers,
