First, check for corrosion around the battery terminals. Then check all of the grounding points. (Negative battery cable to frame, Engine block to frame, etc.)

If all of these check out, then it is possible that while jumping your vehicle, a voltage spike fried your computer. But there would usually be a trouble code.

Have your computer scanned as your last step.
