In a first embodiment of the present invention, a method for error-correcting in a parallel interconnect transmitting device is provided, the method comprising: detecting a frame transition in a transmission from the transmitting device to a parallel interconnect receiving device; tracking time between the frame transition and a transition of a response signal corresponding to the frame transition received from the receiving device; detecting an error in the transmission; and restarting a portion of the transmission in response to the error, wherein the size of the portion of the transmission to restart is based upon the tracked time between the frame transition and the transition of a response signal corresponding to the frame transition.
