Default problems with windows 7 64 bit, need help.

I went from vista 64 bit home premium to windows 7 64 bit and the problems began. Problems such as wireless stop working, asus utilities not being compatable and 400+ points drop in performance. Should i go back to vista or do u think its because its early day with windows 7?

Are you running the Windows 7 drivers? or are they under compatability mode?
Windows 7 will see a drop in performance at begining a bit but it will be optimized more and more for broader hardware. I think you should go back to vista for a little while more and then come back once 7 has been tweeked out
