drive belt

A quick question. can a slight change of the drive belt can cause the alternator to go bad? The car to have less power?
Does the belt have to run in a perfect straight line??

thx

Only one correct way to put on the belt. As long as all the ribs of the belt is on the pulleys you should be fine with correct tention of course.

this is really weird... i did not take out the belt although i attempted to, the car is running weak at idle. It idled REALLy weak like it's gonna shut off for the first day.. it's not that bad now although it's not as strong as b4. i hope it's fine

Clean out the throttle body a bit. Probably the idle air passage is dirty which will cause it to idle low. NOTHING to do with the belt.
