Maybe your shortcut icon is not correct. Why not go to the game directory where you've installed Zero hour and right click that zero hour.exe icon to make a deskstop shortcut and if you're using Win 7 64bit have it run on compatibility either xp2 or xp3 to avoid a static in-game menu. Also Zero hour needs Generals installed to function.
