Do you think I screwed my motherboard?

Ok, I put in all my new computer parts, as follows:

KK266
1.2 t-bird @ 266fsb
FOP32


I have a 200w power supply, and well, it worked good through installation and 1/2 of windows.. Everything was happy, but then I restarted once, windows gave me "BROWSEUI.DLL CRASH" and such, wouldn't let me touch a damn thing in windows :/ Anyway, I try putting in a 235w power supply, and it doesn't boot first power-on, boots the second time, goes into windows, loads the new drivers for a few things, then it starts again, but 1/2 the words on the start screen are MISSING! Anyway, I reset, and all the words are back, it gets into windows, and it loads, giving me the error like before...

Now I took out the 200w and the 235w power supply, and it's sitting here right now... I'm getting a 300w power supply by monday.. If I put that one in, do a clean format and re-install, do you think I'll have any problems?

I hope to god I didn't "short" my motherboard or something... Please give me good news!
