This actually happened to two of my friends file while playing FF7 when both of them had never played for a while. It might be a bug with the memory cards.

Is it an official memory card? I've heard that 3rd party memory cards are prone to data corruption.

Ah, no it isnt. My ex gave it to me from his workand it wouldnt work. So I then transfered it to an offical PS1 memory card and thought that may let it work. Im best deleting it then. Dont want it ruining my other file!

Yeah I think it only happens on the file of the memory card and not the whole memory card itself.

I had this happen on an official Sony memory card not too long ago when I wanted to play FFVII again. Its unfortunate, but happens. I had to order a new one (couldn't find a place locally that carried new PSX memory cards).

Data corruption occurs if you turn off the game while saving. Since this is an old save file, you might have done that and not remember it?

Both my friends had it happen at the end of FFVII and couldnt be bothered to do it all again and thus far have never completed it. Poor souls.

Well Data corruption can happened as well when using a Gameshark/cheat code. Maybe you randomly put in a code a while ago for something? =/
