Wrap your script that starts Solr with one that checks it can access Zookeeper before attempting to start Solr, that way, once ZK starts, Solr will come up. Then, hand *that* script to NSSM.
And finally, when one of you has got a setup that works with NSSM starting Solr via the default bin\solr.cmd script, create a patch and upload it to JIRA. It would be a valuable thing for Solr to have a *standard* way to start Solr on Windows as a service. I recall checking the NSSM license and it wouldn't be an issue to include it within Solr - or to have a script that assumes it is installed.
