How could I be so stupid??? Why did I do this??

Hey guys,

Yesterday, I went to build my second system.
I put the p5a-b in there, with everything on it.
I screwed it to the case, put in the videocard, and fired it up.

Since I have now 4 8cm front-fans, making windspeeds of 20Mph.LOL
Nahh, I thought I heard a little shortcircuit, but wasn't sure.
And suddenly, my screen went blank.

I already tested the pc133, but that wasn't it, neither was it the videocard.
I'm gonna try if it still works this afternoon, cause I've had this before.

About a year ago I tried to get my k6-2 450 from 575 to 600.
Screen went blank, but after several weeks I tried it again, and it worked fine, so.....

But I still don't like what happened.

Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!

This is the worst nightmare I've ever had!!!
I fried my mobo, it don't do nothing anymore.
(snif snif)
I could kick myself in the face, but that don't help very much, now does it????

Looks like I'll be looking for a new mobo!!!
Maybe I'll go celeron and buy an msi 6153, so many settings on that baby!!!
FSB range from 66 all the way up to 150 in steps of about 5Mhz.

We'll see what happens
