i try my old friend's system..(p3 450 +mb)

with his PSU 250..it won't boot when i press the power.. i have to wait a couple hours...so i am get bored..and change the PSU with my 400 watt psu.. it worked but still the monitor is won't turn on..so i wonder why...and then i just replace the PSU (250 &400) back and fourth. then one time with PSU 400 W, suddently the mb is burned and i can see the fire...(turn it off quickly of course), now i think i have screwed the MB..but i don't think the pentium 3 is burned...

so anyone knows why this can happened? (just curious) and does my p3 450 is still alive? . i can't test it (no mb for p3 anymore)
