Electrical problem

Hey guys, I found an intrepid forum and signed up to ask this question but haven't gotten any replies yet. So maybe somebody here can help. It's a 97 intrepid with the 3.3

Hopped in the car to head to work, and the power windows wont roll down, airbag light is on, and abs light is on. Tried to turn on the ac, and no power there either.

Radio works fine, I think (not sure if i checked) the power locks were working.

So I checked the fuses inside the cabin, they looked fine. Just wondering if anybody know off hand about under the hood, Is there a main fuse that would control all those things? Or a relay that would stop working? I guess it probably wouldn't be a fuse, because my girlfriend said the windows have been working on and off for the last couple of days.

I'm going to have to take a look at it tommorrow before I go to work, any ideas of where to start first? Thanks.<!-- / message -->

somebody finally told me to look up ignition switch, and after searching through old threads i found people with the exact same symptoms. So i'll be switching out the ignition switch tommorrow, hopefully that'll take care of the problem.
