Default Trouble Resetting DIC Codes, Window Valet?

I'm not sure where to start. this weekend I tried to reconfigure my Window Valet and couldn't get it to go into configuration mode. I pushed the door unlock and reset buttons. Nothing happened. Tried pushing the reset 3 times. Nothing happen. Repeated each a couple of times and not sure when, but it did go into configuration mode. I changed the setting on the accessory power on the 3 pushes on the key fob to disable that. The windows went down like they were supposed to, but no horn and no window travel back up.
So know I say forget that and start the car. I immediately got a reduced power message, service tire mon, traction control, etc.......... I shut the car off for a few minutes and started it up again. Same thing.
Now I am really feeling sick. I let it sit a little longer and tried again. this time everything seemed fine. So I thought I would go for a little ride. I had just pulled out on to the main road and got a reduced power, service engine soon. The car seemed to run just fine, but I had no fuel gauge, no oil pressure, no water temperature, no radio, no power windows, no power locks.
Today I printed all of the codes from tech tips to see what I had. I had just about every loss of communication code possible from every module and a couple of circuits to ground. I tried to reset them by going into the manual diagnostic mode and hitting reset but nothing happened. Anyway I said WTF, fired it up and went for a ride with no problems. I have 3 questions:

1. Anyone know why the codes wouldn't reset?
2. Has anyone had any problems with the window valet interferring with the communications systems?
3. Do you think I have an intermittent computer problem, which had nothing to do with the window valet?

Thanks in advance!

COntact Window Valet directly and talk to them about your problems. They might have the answer you need. :)
