My car radio doesn't work...?

I accidentally left my car lights on this morning going to school (it's scary how often I forget to turn them off), and the battery died. Jumping it didn't do anything so we got an AAA guy out and ended up replacing the battery. So now after a 1 1/2 hour ordeal, it's running again. Everything's fine and dandy, except the stereo doesn't turn on at all and the antenna doesn't go up. Does anyone know why and what I can do to get it to work?

BTW it's a '98 Infiniti I30

some cars have radios with anti theft systems. when the battery goes dead they need to be reset with a special code,,,,maybe you got one of those, or maybe jumping the car
just blew the radio fuse. You better hope its the fuse if you dont have the code.

Sometimes there is a wire from your audio straight to the battery check this.Also check your fuse.Maybe you need to change it.
