1994 bmw 740i - how do i disarm my antitheft device??

I just replaced the battery on my 1994 bmw 740i, but apparently by doing so i armed (somehow) the anti-theft device. now, it cranks, but does not start. electronic locks do not work, the radio does not work and the power windows do not work. i was told by my mechanic (who is far!!), to lock and unlock the doors with the key several times. unfortunately, i guess i don’t have my coded key, because again, the electronic locks don’t work - maybe i have just the valet key. this key does however work on the trunk lock, but normally the trunk also unlocks the passenger doors and that is not happening anymore. this morning i left the battery cable off of it in the hopes that it would reset and that i could get it to my mechanic, but in case that doesn’t happen, does anyone know how to otherwise disable the antitheft device? mechanic said he could come by, but not until saturday, and i have my car sitting in front of my house :o(
Answer
Dogsee check your fuses first it sounds more like a fuse problem then any thing else. you should have two or three fuse boxes check your owners manual for where they are located. i had an old 525 and a couple of fuses blew and it did the same thing.
