Try seeing if your video card supports the screen resolution of 1280 x 960 that you are attempting:
(from the Blitz command help):

Open in online IDE

; ; CountGFXModes()/GfxModeWidth/GfxModeHeight/GfxModeDepth example 

intModes=CountGfxModes() 

Print "There are " + intModes + " graphic modes available:" 

; Display all modes including width, height, and color depth 
For t = 1 To intModes 
Print "Mode " + t + " Width"+GfxModeWidth(t)+" Height=" + GfxModeHeight(t) + " Height=" + GfxModeDepth(t) 
Next 
 
MouseWait()
End
