I have Red-Fox BX-6XP2 motherboard. Last week my power suply burnt, I replaced it with a 300w. Since then I got a problem: when pc boots, the cpu fans work for 2sec and they shutdown, everything alse works. As a temp solution, each time it happens, I load BIOS defaults and they start working. But then the problem comes back in next boot.
Any idea what causes this and how to fix?

Try updating the BIOS. Might work.

Have you tried completely reseting the CMOS? Find the Jumper on the mobo and, after unplugging the power cable, change it to the Reset position. Leave it there for about 10-20 seconds and then switch it back. reconnect the power and boot.
