Do you get those errors while scrolling a window, using a mouse in the
scroll bar? Matrox, and some other video adapter vendors, has written
drivers that use a too optimistic registry setting, that can result in a
CRC error.

If you have a Matrox card, change this setting to 1:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\mgax64\Device0\User.SynchronizeEngine
and reboot.

If you use another adapter, check with your vendor, or read the
documentation that came with your driver.

Also, check that FIFO is enabled in the advanced settings in Ports, Control
Panel.

Best regards
