Is this game just doomed to not run on a Windows 10?

[M95]

So I've looked around for solutions, I tried everything I could. Each time I tried something, the game would do the same thing each time I started it up: show a black screen. It would be unresponsive, and I'd have to force shut it down to even get out of it. I KNOW I have enough power to run this old game (bought it for nostalgic reasons) but alas... any thoughts on this?

I played this on Vista about 4years ago with no problems. Have just tried on Win10 and have no problem loading the game, less trouble than most of my other Lego games that I migrated over, so I think it will run ok.
Try starting the game from the 'exe' file as Administrator and maybe try a compatability mode or the Win10 troubleshooter from that file, that has solved my other game start-up problems.

Hope you find your solution. Good Luck :)

First up, happy New Year!

I am sad to read that you could not get it working on Win10.
I don't know what steps you have tried, but have you tried deleting all the files in
C:\Users\<username>AppData\Local\LucasArts\LEGOIndianaJones
?

The only PC I have played LEGO Indy on is a Win10 PC. I was stuffing around with settings once and caused the game to stop starting up. Deleting the above mentioned files including my saved games fixed it for me.

Good luck.

Try minimize window, then maximize.

Doesn't work for me, can't even start the game without the d3d fatal error sign.

Do you have DirectX 9.0c?
