Fire Fox 4.0 Back Button does not function even after disabling add-ons and resetting. Is there a preference setting?

Upgraded to 4.0 on an XP machine and it worked without a problem. Upgraded it on Vista- no back page button. Disabled add-ons, but it still does not function. Is there a setting to make these buttons work? Thank you.

Back, Forward, Print, and Reload/Refresh buttons appear but do not work. Home button works. If I right click on the tab, I can refresh, but the back and forward options are "grey" (non functioning on right click options).
