Sounds like a bad window regulator to me...

When it doesn't come-up, can you hear the motor or anything else?

+1 on the window regulator. The metal wire for the regulator is probably getting stuck or is broken

i dont hear any noise when the window goes up. when it does go up, it is fine. but most of the time it doesnt go up. its the driverside window. how would i take the door panel off to check?

Same problem as yours

I replaced mine a few weeks ago, not a hard job... also make sure you get a new window regulator forma junkyard (it cost 150 for a new one, and only 25 on the junk)
