How to get the game working
This is what you have all probably been wanting to hear, so I will get this out of the way first.

What you do first is download the latest U-play launcher off of the U-play website. Once that is done downloading and installing, you then go on your steam copy of From Dust, click cd-key, copy that to clipboard. You then go back to the U-play launcher and activate prouduct. This will require a key, the key which you should have just got off steam. Copy and paste the steam key in, activate the prouduct and launch. Note, it may be a liitle bit glitchy (not properly using the game curser and menu) when it first starts up and the first screenshot you take of the game might crash it. Once the first startup is done, there should be no problems however.
Level 1: The Breath
This is the basic tutorial mission, so this will be quick. Watch the intro and then hold down left-mouse button when it asks you to. This will create your charecter. Have a look around the map until the game asks you to help the men croos a small river. Once it does this, you will gain the ability to move earth/sand as well as water (and eventually lava). Simply drag the curser/breath onto sand, hold left click and then head back to the men and then hold right mouse button to deposit the sand in the water to start making a land bridge. This may take 2-5 loads to complete. Then wait until the men ask you to go with them through the passage way and so end the level.

11 months ago, exojjl2 posted here that it still does not work, so the change was probably in the last 1 year. I know it's old but I randomly found your guide so I thought I would comment just for fun.

My friend, you see how this guide is from 2015? The thing is long dead and was basically me recording how I got the game working for me, in case it helped anyone else who had the same problem.

There must have been a recent change, I never had a single problem with the game.

Could you not simply get the game to work by pressing play???!!! I mean I've owned this game for years now and still haven't played it.

nvidea driver updates are changing settings and all you need for game is the generic chipset for the display which works fine. It sounds crazy but try and bypass the graphics card and use the intel display processors (usually). It is just the age of the game and sophisticated new drivers leaving 5+ year old games behind.
