Your missing a file(s) for the Menu, try reinstalling and make sure you *add* the English.pak and not override or replace any other language pak. It goes in
C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis\Game\Localized
The game will automatically detect your language by looking at the settings in XP.
Also there should be 2 files English.pak and English.lng both go in the same directory.

thanks for the input but thats not what the problem was. There is a default.lng file in the same folder. You have to open it up and change the language to english. After that, its all gravy.
