The manual for older models says "Important after reconnecting battery! Re-intiate front power windows: shut doors, raise windows with switches, hold switches pressed at least 3 seconds. Checking Initiation: automatic tipping in closing direction must work. If not, repeat the procedure."
Sounds like this implies that the windows will work, at least to run them closed. You might try disconnecing the batteries and starting from scratch. It also recommends this procedure for the sun roof after connecting the batteries.

: Hi everybody, I need a lot of help !
: Here is a brief list of my troubles :
: 1. Check Engine light came on a few days ago. Also has
: a rough idle sometimes, but NOT ALWAYS ! There is
: some noise coming from under the car (catalic
: converter ???)
: 2. The remote control won't work (can not be
: programmed so doesn't do anything)
: I can alarm and disarm the car with the key only.
: 3. None of the front windows works and neither the
: driver side rear. Strange but the passenger side
: rear works just fine.
: 4. I'm missing a lower part of the bumper and the
: spoiler . Anybody has a used one ? Or maybe a CSI
: front bumper ? (does anybody makes an aftermarket
: bumber for the E31 ?)
: 5. Finally at last but least : The key stuck in
: the ignition and has to play with it for a few
: minutes to get it out. I used WD40 but didn't help
: I can turn on and off the engine but can not pull
: the key out. I managed to pull out a few times but
: took me 35 minutes for the first time, and 5 for
: the second time. Anybody had anything like that ?
: Comment : The car is new to me, was purchased only 3
: days ago from an insurance company - AS IS. I'd like to fix most of the problems becuse I had a bad luck with my d(s)tealers, especially if it comes to electronics. Any help is greatly appriciated !
: Thank all of You !
