I had similar problem

I had similar problem with my car. Blank screen Radio used to turn off after 3 min from initial start. When I took my car to BMW deler they wanted $2200 to fix the problem. I simply replaced the computer my self and everything is working now. it cost me around $400 for old MKIII computer. The problem was started after jump starting my car. Also, if you disconnect the battery while computer still on then it will cause the same problem. Computer stays on for about a min after car is turned off.

You may want to check all the fuses.
1. There are three fuses in the trunk above the battery.
2. Also there are several fuses in the glove box. open the glove box and look up. there are two white locks about 8-10 inch a part. You can unlock them by simply turning them.
