Default 76 electrical issues

I need help desperately,I recently installed a new battery in my 76 Vette and got it out for the 1st time this morning, went to roll the windows down and nothing,no power,the tach stays at 1000 rpm's,the headlights raise but the bulbs are not burning and the door buzzer goes off the whole time you have the light switch turned on! I have owned this car many years and have never had the 1st problem with it,anyone ever had these problems or any advice on them will be greatly appreciated! Thanks Tom
