SRS and ASC and ABS lights all on? Start with batteries.

Batteries? I just put in a brand new battery a few months ago. I don't think it's a power issue?

Did you perhaps just swap the steering wheel without disconnecting the batteries? Any other work you've done on the car before the light came on?

Actually, there are 2 batteries and chances are if you had to replace one the other is in similar shape...........SRS is "usually" airbag or seatbelt related so if you had any work done to either of these systems I would start there otherwise you might need the system scanned for troubles and if all Ok then have the light reset.......can only be done at the dealer usually though........thats the downside.

that is why i bought a snap-on mt2500. with that tool you can do anything.
the bmw dealership can do. costs are about 300,- but it's well worth the money

Since both batteries are in parallel you must always replace them in pairs, otherwise the older one will just drain the new one and you'll be no step further.
