Corrupt saves

Not really sure if this is a bug or a corrupt map. I've checked the forums but didn't find any results.
I went to load my new map for 17 today and it would not load because the game said something about a CRC check error...no big deal i'll just use one of the auto saves...
except they look like this
Everything seems to function fine, it just looks like garbage.
With some experimentation, I found that if i place stone bricks down on one of the trouble areas and then remove it, it fixes the issue, but only for that one spot.
Is my save file just trash or is this fixable?

Please attach the logfile for loading a problematic autosave, and potentially the original corrupted save as well.

Attached are the two files requested.
Is the file "factorio-current.log" under AppData/Roaming/Factorio the one you wanted?

The logfile only indicates attempts to load the corrupted save (with the invalid CRC); I wanted to check for any warnings etc. present when loading an autosave.
As for the corrupted savegame, the .zip-file-level CRC for level.dat doesn't match; I'm currently in the process of attempting to determine why this mismatch exists.

I appreciate you looking. Don't spend too much time looking into it unless you think it's a legit issue, I'm not that far into the map, just have the first 4 science packs. Just wanted to see if anyone could give any input if they have seen the weird graphical issues i saw in the auto save files.

My best guess is that they're some sort of invalid decorative, but since the game is already known to be in a faulty state for whatever reason, it doesn't entirely matter what they are.

On the screenshot, grass texture for 1x1 tiles seem to be corrupted. Does the problem persist if you restart the game? If so, try to verify integrity of game files in Factorio properties in Steam Library.
Given the texture corruption and save ZIP corruption, I have high suspicion something in your computer is dying.
I tried to re-zip the corrupted save and it loaded for me after that.
