'94 Nissan Sentra Battery Problems

I am so frustrated, I feel like wrecking my car! Anyhow, I am having trouble keeping the battery charged. This past week, I replaced both battery and alternator. However, the battery continues to die. I can charge it, and drive it for a few minutes, but if I turn on the lights, turn signal, windshield wipers etc. the car suddenly stalls out. I have also made sure the battery cable is grounded. Anyone have any ideas?

Have you tested the charging voltage at all?
Use a digital voltmeter across the battery with the engine idling and no accessories on. You should have between 13.5 and 14.7 volts. If not, check you maxi fuses in the engine compartment fuse box.
