Issues fixed

TweakGuides has created a comprehensive guide for fixing issues in this game. It can be found here.
If you are experiencing crashes while changing graphical or controller options, try disabling your Anti-Virus software, if you have AVG or Norton 360, this is most likely the cause of the crashing. In AVG you can add an exception by going to Advanced Options > Add Exception then navigate to Documents/My Games/Crysis and add the exception this will fix the problem without having to disable your anti-virus.

Crash on Fullscreen Toggle

If you get an error saying 'This program has stopped responding' after changing between fullscreen and windowed, force DX9 mode to solve the issue.

Error 5024

Game will not launch at all and ends up with security error 5024. You are probably running Process Explorer so turn it off and game will launch OK.
