Ahh, bargain bins. Like little time machines full of nostalgia.
Anyway, I picked up the Windows (-95 I presume, the game came out in '97) version of Croc and Croc 2 (released in '99) and yet I can't get the game to install on Windows 7 64-bit. All that I've been able to accomplish through the compatibility programs is make a new box appear saying the 'Install Croc!' along with a bunch of other greyed out boxes. Clicking on it does nothing, though once I got it to say something along the lines of 'Installation binary not found on this CD' or something along those lines. Anyone know how/has gotten this game to work on Windows 7?

The issue may be that your OS is simply too far ahead of the games to operate. If that's the case then you can emulate an older OS. You said that those were released in 99, so XP should be able to run them both. If that doesn't work let us know and we'll figure something else out.

what do you expect? eventually compability runs out
however i have a bought copy from many years ago and it installs fine on my windows 7 64bit pc without changing any setting, i just put the cd in and click install.
according to http://digiex.net/downloads/download-center-2-0/games/1221-croc-legend-gobbos-full-game-iso-includes-cd-audio-works-vista-x64.html it can run fine too.
else try _setup instead of setup.exe if thats on your cd. or change the driver settings if you can in that menu.
gog should really release this game :)
[edit] i played through the first level. i couldnt quit the game though, but according to the mentioned forum you can quit while keep pressing alt f4 . i used ctrl alt del and switched to different user.
