Nothing works, power windows, locks, Navigation Display, Dome lights, Radio... etc. Is there some sort of check list that would make my life easier?.

Start with the basics. Battery voltage? How is the fusible links? When multiple systems go down, many times it is because a link or two failed. Power windows and door locks are on the same circuit breaker. Dome lights and radio are on the same fuse also I think.
