Compatibility fixes for modern hardware

Zone Runner is an old Multimedia Fusion game and has some issues on modern computers, but fortunately, like with Zone Runner 2, there are a few simple fixes for them.

1. Create a shortcut to Zone Runner that uses the /NOF command to force the game to run in windowed mode. You can do this by right clicking the shortcut, selecting properties, going to the Shortcut tab, then adding /NOF to the end of the target path (eg: "C:\gamedirectory\zone.exe" /NOF). This fixes some slowdown issues that some levels might otherwise have. This will make the game window very small on modern monitors, but thankfully there is a fix for that too.

2. Open the Magnifier app that comes with most versions of Windows. Use it to enlarge the game window to a more tolerable size.

3. Run the game in compatibility mode for Windows 98. This prevents crashes that might otherwise occur.
4. Open task manager and set the affinity of zone.exe to only use one core. This fixes a potential bug where the sound echos and makes the game very laggy.
5. If any graphical glitches occur, you can try pressing F2 to restart the game. This is also useful for quicker restarts when doing runs.
