Have you tried checking through the solutions suggested in Troubleshooting WordPress 3.1 – Master List
I am having the same problem – there is no screen option drop down menu anywhere on the page for me to actually choose options from
I followed the instructions on the link above about adding the code into themefunctions to but this also did nothing I have no idea what to do!
just realised what the problem was – the jetpak advertising banner was hiding my screen options tab, it took over 1 hour for jetpak to download and once it was finished the advertising banner went away and i can now see the screen options tab

Problem actually didn’t resolve itself a few minutes later the jetpak banner reappeared on the dashboard and the screen options menu disappeared again, I just decided to uninstall jetpack to get rid of the banner so i can get my screen options menu back but problem might not be resolved for those who have same problem and also want jetpack
