Default i realy need some advice

well guys i know ive gone over this once but...heres the real problem,well last week i got my car checked on some computer and it said my alternator wasnt charging the battery,so today i removed the alternator and had it checked in autozone where i bought it from and it passed all the test and said there was nothing wrong with it.so i went back with the battery and the battery was dead,so i got it charged fully,and then the car was running all over again perfectly fine.like 20 minutes into my drive the same problem occurs my battery light and brake light turn back on and all my windows begin to go up slowly again.So if the alternator is fine,then why is this happening??? im this close to calling an electrasist,but i know ill be charge an arm and a leg,please help.and if you live in the miami area or you know someone in the area that might know,let me know,ill pay very good,i dont want anything to happen to my baby LOL

no sounds like what sebba said, you got a bad ground somewhere and not letting you recharge your battery.
