Default Weird Electrical Probs

cars been fooking weird lately, first of all the temp gaude stopped working and then would suddenly work for a few days and then stoped working again and so on, um the battery seems to not hold a charge asoon as u switch the engine of the lights dim straight away, never has enough power to restart always seems sluggish just goes in the end, but sometimes it seems ok and turns over good, the other day its was turning over fine but wouldn't fire untill i let off the starter and it fired seems like i ain't putting out enought power for the starter and the coil, electric window was playing up aswell wouldn't go up unless i pushed down a few times first (this could just be a dodgy switch connection since i had the center consol out the other day) but its really tempamental sometimes it'll start straight away and other times it just is dead asoon as i try and start it, it's had a new altenator and the battery is only 2 years old.

do u guys have any ideas could the battery go in a way that it, cause's problems like this, or could it be somthing else,

Cheers guys for having a look.
