Mass Effect 1 Crashes Loading Save File

So I entered MSV Ontario (ship) and I died. I reloaded the save and the game crashed and now that quicksave even the autosave will always crash my game. I reloaded a previous save on another planet like 4 hours back and it worked fine. Wtf is breaking my game on that ship? How can I start the save in some kind of a safe mode like windows? Also nice work leaving this game breaking issue in, so good.

    If you are on a PC try to repair the game.

    (Origin: Game Library > Right-click the game cover > Repair)

    (EA app: My Collection > Click on the three dots on the game cover > Repair)
    (Steam: Game Library > Right-click the game > Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files.)

    If that don't works your save games are corrupt and cant be retrieved.

    @holger1405 You think I didn't try this already? I tried everything but why are you recommending this to me? It's obvious that the game is broken because other saves work.

    @TracerXZX And why did it get corrupted? When I died nothing happened, I pressed reload and the it froze, this is a game problem. Something is bugging out and the engine can't handle it.
