The 503+ is a combination AT/ATX board.  There is a jumper on the board to
select which type of PS you are using.  Check that one first.  Then unplug
all the drives (both power and data cables) and any expansion cards except
for the video card.  If the board, PS, RAM and video are fine you should POST.
