check the light in your glove compartmant and your trunk and hood, see if they stay on when the car is off and the doors are closed i had the glove compartment light drain my battery for 6 months before i saw the light on one night... could be an easy fix

are there any possible problems with the starter affiliated wit the battery?

yeah, but if the starter was the problem, it would have been fixed when you changed it...more than lickly its something that seems completly un related...

even though you got a new alternator you may have a bad voltage regulator and its not allowing your battery to charge correctly.sign to look for are when your driving an your car only shuts off when you stop or your int. lights flucuate good luck hope i helped
