just got the same game for my kids. we got the same black screen. i also have win10.

it doesnt start, freezes my steam and log me off after a while

Have you all tried to validate the game files by right clicking the game and going local files and validate game assets? This game is an old game but it should still have support for windows 10.

i have this same problem, but i have windows 8. did you figure out any way to fix this problem?

Hi, i fixe the same probleme (win7), screen black but sound... so :

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Finding Nemo
open NemoConfig
change for medium graphic and OK

for me after all is good ... but the game is ... you will see ^^'

.... bruh im starting to see why old games are a hit or miss on steam

Is anyone right now noticing how almost every disney game either dont work or is carrying something bad?

If anyone still needs help, find a DirectX 8 wrapper. That fixed my problem.

If anyone is somehow looking at this 6 years after it's posted, I found a way to fix this for myself! I had to change the compatibility to WXP SP3. If you're unsure on how to do it:

1. Right click the game in your library and go to Properties.
2. Click on Local Files and then Browse.
3. Find the file called 'NemoAdv.exe', right click and go to Properties.
4. Go to Compatibility.
5. Where it says 'Compatibility mode', make sure the 'Run this program in compatibility mode for:' box is selected! Click on the drop down arrow and select 'Windows XP (Service Pack 3)'.
6. Press Apply, then press OK.
7. Now the game should be able to run!

I had to try various different versions to find the right one where it would work, so if Service Pack 3 doesn't work, try those different ones! :) now my niece can finally play my childhood game mwhahaha

what actually helped me was changing my screen resolution to 800x600 in windows display settings! then started the game and it finally showed up, this was the only thing that worked for me
