Most save points works fine, just do what was already said, use the save state before trying one for the first time. If it works it will work always, if it doesn't it doesn't always.

Not true, it seems to change after some events.

That I didn't know, never is too late to learn, thanks Shadow Lady
PS: one more reason to savestate before using any save point... now even to retry those I didn't before because they sent me to BIOS every time I attempted them, at some point I just avoided them at all.

I'm not sure if it was in this forum or on another website discussing PCSX2
However someone pointed out the corruption of thumbnails depicting the screen at the time the save point was accessed
When these screens get taken for the thumbnail screen shot I am pretty sure that PS2 is expecting a much much lower resolution with less graphical flare and therefore a much smaller file size for the thumb
Sometimes PS2 will force the screenshot causing corruption but other times it gets confused and drops to browser
Setting much lower graphics settings on the emulator resulted in saving successfully (still with corrupted thumbnails)
The work around I can suggest is to use save state by a save point, drop out and lower all your emulator's graphics settings
Native resolution
D3d 9 Software
640x480 Window
Close the emulator and then reload it
load Xenosaga
load the save state
and then try the save point for a solid memory card save
I'm not sure if this information helps the developers with future builds; ie: a new game fix that forces a small res thumb or replaces thumb with a dummy?
