John,
I have indeed seen this as well. (spooky that we share the same name Rob).
This is undoubtedly caused by autosensing. You will have to set you server
NIC to full duplex and 100 meg then set the switch port to this as well.
You will then lose the errors. It seems to happen between Compaq and large
end HP servers.

I've seen similar when one or both ethernet ports are set to autosensing. It
was resolved by setting them both to the same speed and mode.

Subject: Ethernet Frame Errors
We have a Compaq file server connected at 100Mb full duplex to a switch.
They are directly connected by a single cable (7 ft.), and we are seeing
align errors and crc errors coming from the server. We've replaced the
cable and still see the errors.
What might be some other causes of these errors? This LAN is experiencing
other odd intermittent communications problems and I think these two
symptoms may be related, even though the error rate is less than 1%.
However, it should be 0%!
Thanks for any tips, this one has me stumped.
John
