- Make sure your video drivers are up to date.
- Use MassEffectConfig to change the audio option from hardware to software.

I bolded the things I usually do/have done, so next time I'll play I'll do the opposite and try changing the settings. I have Windows 7 with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 260, also. Thanks for the help!
I just got Mass Effect and I have the same issue. The game runs very smoothly and looks great until crashing when making certain character dialog choices.
So far I've personally seen it in two places while hitting 'Investigation' dialog options:
1) Talking to Dr. Chakwas after getting knocked out by the beacon
2) While talking to the volus banker in the Presidum (Barla Von).
I get the same gzlibfile error. After some research it was apparent that this error definitely has some history being reported online. I just wish there was an official answer. I know it's a relatively older game and newer titles are raking in the dough, but game crashing bugs like this are no fun.
