First check battery make sure it got enough power. Check fuse box to starter, check fuse box to power window. If you got good battery and it wont crank, it's your starter gone bad or heavy corrosion. Tap on the starter with ball ping hammer and it should start for time being. This gets the heavy corrosion loose from the inside for good contact. Power window not working has noting to do with starter but it might be just a bad luck with it going out on you at the same time. Good luck.
