Thanks for your time, but your solution did not work for me. Neither did any other proposed solutions for that matter.
- made a shortcut of the original MassEffect2.exe from Binaries to the Desktop and added -nomoviestartup to the end of it's 'target' field, with the space and without any quotes.
- changed the program to run compatibility settings to Windows 7
- Disabled all Graphics Options, selected 800 x 600 and changed it to "window"
- Chose Tali and Jack as crew mates
- Set all "vsync" options in that configuration file you mentioned to "vsync=False" and saved the file
- run the shortcut as administrator
I did all of these, and yet none worked. Still the cut scene at the car chase, goes black and there's only audio, nothing works.

What should I do?
go in this directory:
Mass Effect 2 \ BioGame \ DLC \ DLC_EXP_Part01 \ Movies
and move the file named "EXP_Part01_CarCrashBink.bik" into the movie folder of the game right here:
Mass Effect 2 \ BioGame \ Movies
- @AetherArchon Thank you so much, i spent all day trying to figure out with the other solution but only this worked for me
The crash only happens if you watched Shadow Broker video recording in the room with Feron.
So i fixed this issie by doing this
1)Do everything possible in Shadow Broker room, walk towards the exit, make a quick and separate save files2)Turn video setting to full screen.
3)Restart the game
4)Load quick save - you should be standing in front of the exit door still
5)Change video setting to Windowed (borderless window doesnt work)
6)Try exiting to the Normandy.If doesnt help - try again. It works for me 3 times out of 5.
