OK - On the 1997 Malibu both the power windows and the ac/heater blower are fed off of fuses/circuit breakers located in right hand IP electrical center. They are on different fuses - sounds like you found the window circuit breaker.
 
Questions
Any other electrical issues with your vehicle?
 
Does your vehicle have cruise control - and if it does when you press the ON/OFF switch in steering wheel does the indicator in the switch light up?
 
If you look at the heater/ac control head do other functions work - like the rear defogger?
 
It sounds like there might be an issue with the main power feed to the right hand IP fuse center (from ignition switch) or the IP fuse center itself from your description so far - answers to above will help isolate it a bit further.

Yes, I had the dealer install the wind deflector for the sunroof on my Maxx under the TSB. However, the deflector only cuts down on wind noise when you drive with the sunroof open all the way. The deflector does nothing for the violent buffeting you hear when only the rear windows are down and the sunroof and front windows are closed. The "rear window down" buffeting noise stops if you open the sunroof, with or without the sunroof deflector.

e2helper, checked those things out today. nothing works. (cruise,rear window defroster) have ordered a 'library loan' to our library "chiltons manual including 97 malibu" data. should come soon. we're gone 3 days if surgery (rotorooter) goes well tomorrow morning. our small town (page, az) doesnt have a big enough hosp to do those things. hope to be able to check out forum by early fri. evening to see if you have an update. thanks for your help. kat
