Don't use your 'zaps' until the end.  Then use them all on the wizard.  You
can usually blow him away with normal fighting after that.  I never did know
about an 'infinite lives' cheat and was able to kill the wizard effectively
after about a week of playing.  When I stopped playing the game, it was my
goal to try and kill the wizard without using any 'zaps'.  I came close, but
no cigar.
