EK charging problem

[WhiteLightning]

Just got the car and thought the battery was dead but the person forgot to plug the alternator in.So bought a new battery and plugged the alternator in.Bought some some reason the car still dies.I recharged the battery fully and tried it but it still dies down after a minute but it will run if you leave the jumper cable hooked up ]
also I took the alternator to autozone to have it tested and it was ok
Any Idea's?
Its a 96 EK CIVIC EX

cables or battery. Maybe its a bad ground.

Fixed the problem.Main fuse the screws holding it in wasnt tight enough so it was breaking the connection and not allowing power to the alternator
