Can it be that system() fails? It simply finds a shell (cmd.exe) and
executes in it the command you wrote: in WinXP "pause" is defined, but
something can ever go wrong. Try an input, std::cin << a char if you're
using C++, instead of using system, that's less portable (maybe that not
all shells support that command).

You say in debug it works: how? Simply starting debug with no breakpoints
it stops for you to press a key? If so try redirecting output to a file to
see what normal execution printed out, this can give you more hints.

Hope I helped, bye.
