It is difficult and uncertain to try to troubleshoot something like this via the Asylum.

There may be another panel in a place you have not found, there may be problems with the way your house was wired, or you could have defective breakers. Are your breaker panels labeled "Sylvania" or "Zinsco?" In any case, this is dangerous and you should know where to go to turn off and reset the circuit breaker for any outlet or appliance in your house.

Don't put this off. Ask around for a recommendation for a good electrician in your area. Established real estate agents usually know of the good ones.
