You can't open anything on the drop down menu's therefore you cannot go through preferences as once you click on the ???? it shuts down :(

Try resetting the preferences as described in this article: http://audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php? ... references

If you are not confident about editing the Windows Registry, you may decide to take the easier option and install Audacity 1.3.5 (1.3.x uses a file instead of the registry for storing the preferences)
