Default 97 accord EX windoes and sun roof wont move

so i took over my moms... 1997 accord ex auto with 136k miles and when i was driving back from work smoked a cig, tried to close the window and it wont work only would go down and thats it. so i took everything off and the controller looked like it got burned so i went to junk yard got another controller and it wouldn't work. and front passenger side window would go down but not up... i have to use it own controller to get it to close all other windows work perfectly fine but than i notice that my sun roof wont work too.... so would that mean that i have some critical electric problem or ....? plz Help it sucks to drive on high way and ur window is not shut all the way... =(

Thank You
Boris

I had this problem for months on all 4 windows XD, I started using the sunroof

But really. It could be window regulators starting to go bad *not enough umph to push it up*, i had to replace the 2 backs ones when i got this car as they went down and never went back up, They work now but My front ones still don't, just not had time / bothered, Since using sunroof. I can see the sky and clouds :D

Just a suggestion,have you tried lubricating the window channels? I use 303 protectant it does a great job of freeing up windows that are stuck. The window channels could dried out and dirty.
