What kind of problems can swapping out a PSU cause?

I swapped out my PSU from the case's stock Coolermaster 350W to an Antec 350W one when the orignial one died.

Ever since, I have been getting the dreaded #132 error while playing WoW which has something to do with the game accessing RAM. I have tried everything that the WoW tech suport page suggests and have not had any luck.

Any issues that swapping a PSU might cause?
 
Let's suppose my PSU fried and took some piece of the system with it. What would be the likely culprit? Keep in mind that the system works fine for everything buy WOW...
 
anyone?

Not that it really matters... I get on a plane tomorrow for a week long business trip...
 
. Theoretically changing out PSUs should cause no problems in itself. Always the chance of knocking (or leaving) something loose like memory modules, power connections, add-on cards, etc.
. And then, your new PSU may not be a good match to your system. Exactly which model is the PSU (just telling me the amp ratings on the +5 and +12 rails would make my life easier) and what motherboard, CPU, video card and other peripherals do you have in the case (drives, etc.). A solid 350 W is plenty of power for most systems it just needs to be distributed across the rails properly to match the system it's in.
