You are trying to set a mode that isn't a 'standard' 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 etc.

Works in debug mode because it's windowed. When you put it into release mode it tries to go fullscreen unless you do:

Graphics 896,574,32,2   ; It's the ,2 at the end which is important.

To force it to stay windowed.

I you omit the last parameter, it will use windowed in debugging mode and fullscreen in release (aka nondebugging) mode.
