Machine is 2 years old. Yesterday the battery which was reported as 100% charged failed to keep the computer alive when unplugged, and just gives a fast flashhing on the battery icon. Before this the battery was surviving4-5 hrs and I saw no dedregation.

Is it just a dead battery?

You have (2) options. Either try your existing battery in another machine, or get another battery to try in yours.
