It wasn't that the Enterprise had lost power, Scotty had implemented a new 
computer system to control the functions that the other 490 crew 
members had previously had contol over.	 Remember, he tells Kirk,
"Cap'n, I jury rigged this thing for a normal space voyage, I didn'
expect to go into combat". I seems it was O.K. for controlling the 
normal functions of the Enterprise, but wasn't designed to control
the phasers, photon torps, or evasive warp-speed maneuvers in addition
to the regular stuff. So it got overloaded and blew up.
