Err... solved the menu problem, I read the Readme.txt
Seems you need to reboot the computer (Which I did) or manually copy a font file over to the fonts folder:

1/ Why is there an empty menu when I launch the game?
-----------------------------------------------------
The game requires a reboot. Please reboot your system and try again.
IF THE PROBLEM PERSISTS :
you'll have to manually install the game font into your system font folder.
Take the file called "AgencyB.TTF" that is located in the game folder
(usually "C:\Program Files\Monte Cristo\DR vs AK") and copy it into the
system's font folder, (usually C:\WINDOWS\Fonts or C:\WINNT\Fonts)

Must have been me trying to run the game without rebooting and using the crack first that screwed it up as replacing the starforce EXE and rebooting didn't solve it, so had to do the manual copy thingy as per readme!
I applied the missing files again and the FLT Crackfix and game works fine now, menu text is now visible. I also applied the ATI Shadow Fix patch too, just to be safe!
