الحل انا شخصيا مجربه لو مفهمتش حاجة قولي وانا هوضح لك لاني مشغول حاليا

Make sure you have the latest DirectX 9.0c installed, you can Google it or get it from Microsoft
make sure you have windows 7 service pack 1 at least installed!
make sure you have the LATEST Graphic Drivers installed for your VGA Card and that meets the game's requirements!
make sure that both Generals and Zero hour its on its latest patch version! TFD should be updated!
(must be a clean installation no other MODS etc!)
into your "user" directory (named with your user account yeah you know there where you see the folder my pictures, my music etc)
in there go to "My Documents"
well there after trying to run the game you would see a Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data folder.
open it.
right click and creat new empty .TXT file and rename it options.ini
(make sure you see the extension .txt and you dont end up having a stupid file named options.ini.txt!) if you dont know how to see the files extension in windows 7, google it or get an xbox to play :P
now copy the following lines inside and Save it!
**warning in the resolution section put your resolution*********
***also some LOD settings may not work with your VGA card! remove those lines if you cant run the game!****






AntiAliasing = 1
BuildingOcclusion = yes
CampaignDifficulty = 0
DynamicLOD = yes
ExtraAnimations = yes
GameSpyIPAddress = 0.0.0.0
Gamma = 50
HeatEffects = yes
IPAddress = 0.0.0.0
IdealStaticGameLOD = Low
LanguageFilter = false
MaxParticleCount = 5000
MusicVolume = 55
Resolution = 1366 768
Retaliation = yes
SFX3DVolume = 79
SFXVolume = 71
ScrollFactor = 60
SendDelay = no
ShowSoftWaterEdge = yes
ShowTrees = yes
StaticGameLOD = Custom
TextureReduction = 0
UseAlternateMouse = yes
UseCloudMap = yes
UseDoubleClickAttackMove = no
UseLightMap = yes
UseShadowDecals = yes
UseShadowVolumes = yes
VoiceVolume = 70


then Right Click on your Generals / Zero hour Sortcut (if you dont have make one), in widows 7 most games make there sortcuts into the "GAMES" menu in Start Menu
and in the Compatibility Tab just select Windows XP sp3 and click "Run as administrator" option too (if you are not an admin)
thats it go inside change your settings and restart the game.
other alternative simplier solution:


windows 7 x64 SP1 (service pack1 is crusial!)
clean install of the game and patch to latest versions!
change compatibility of the main .exe to Windows XP sp3 (so that the main menu shellmap works ok)
run the game for 1st time and during this run go to setting and change everything you want! (besides resolution)
then exit game and locate the options.ini i told you before in your Documents\Generals zrohour data\ folder
change there only the resolution line to your screen's native. (ex Resolution = 1366 76
save and rerun the game. you are done!
