You probably either fried your fuse block or maybe a couple relays? Fusible links?

Re: had some kind of major electronic failure HELP
You just lost the memory back-up supply to the radio. Re-check the fuse, it should be a straightforward issue, same fuse for all 3 things. Did you get all pieces of the spring out of there? Windows are on a separate circuit. Anything else not working, blower, headlights?
There's only small differences, but you forgot to mention what car this is..
