Since changing to windows 7 64 the wifi and performance butons at the top of the notebook (and the various fn keys).
I have contacted rock and Asus for support, but was told there is no support for windows 7 because the system was designed for vista.

It seems like you are facing compatibility issues with the function keys on your laptop after upgrading to Windows 7 64-bit. The lack of support from the manufacturer for Windows 7 on a system designed for Vista can certainly be a challenge. To address the issue with the function keys on your notebook after upgrading to Windows 7, you may need to manually install the correct drivers or utilities that will enable these keys to function properly. Here are some steps you can try to resolve this issue: 1. Check for Driver Updates: - Visit the official ASUS support website and look for driver updates specifically designed for Windows 7 64-bit for your laptop model. 2. Install Hotkey Utility: - ASUS laptops often require a Hotkey Utility to enable the functionality of the function keys. Ensure that you have this utility installed and updated for Windows 7. 3. Function Key Settings: - Check the BIOS settings of your laptop to see if there are options related to the function keys. Sometimes, there are settings in the BIOS that need to be configured for these keys to work correctly. 4. Compatibility Mode: - You can try running the drivers or utilities in compatibility mode for Windows Vista. Right-click on the installer, go to Properties, and then Compatibility tab to set it to run as if on Windows Vista. 5. Third-Party Applications: - If the above steps do not work, you might consider using third-party applications that allow custom remapping of function keys. 6. Community Forums: - Browse ASUS or Windows 7 forums where users might have shared solutions or workarounds for similar issues. By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot and hopefully resolve the issue with your function keys on Windows 7. Feel free to reach out if you need further assistance or encounter any specific problems during this process. Good luck with fixing the function keys on your ASUS laptop!
