not charging ?

installed new Alt. and both batteries about a week ago, Driver just called and said it is doing the same thing,he can jump it off , but after he removes the jumper cables,it will run only a few minutes die ,and then the batteries are dead. I check the system no shorts ,draws , or loose wires. This is an 06 with over 200,000 . Will the ficm cause alt / charging problems ?
