Porsche boxster wont start

What is your question?

The first thing that this car started to do was not allow me to put down the top, then the windows wont go up or down, the key remote wont work or set alarm, and now it wont start. Have checked battery, have checked fuses, have disconnected the battery overnight with hopes of resetting the computer. No luck, still not starting, dashboard lights all come in with key in ignition and air conditioner comes on as well, no radio - checked fuses, cant get control locking button to come on either. What is going on with this car, I have only owned it for two weeks and drove great until three days ago.

i am having a simmilar issue with my 98 boxster. it stared when the car would not start even though the battery was fully charged. a few hours later it ran just fine. it ran for 2 days and then just stoped. the next day a sound was comming from near the gas cap, almost like a selonoyde. a few min. later the windows started rolling up and down on their own, and now the light for the door locks sayes they are locked and there are 2 lights on the reciever for the remote door locks. please help. the car has been great and i would love to get it fixed but cant aford this kind of problem from the porsche dealership. blake@techplacemobile.com
