Check the starter, and the alternator.  You can have both checked out for free at any local automotive store (i.e. autozone or o'reilly's).  What exactly is it doing when you try to start it?  Is the engine trying to crank over, or is it just a clicking noise?

Pesky starters, they should make better starters. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hmmm.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hmmm:'>
