1702 Cable error

I am receiving this message during boot:
"1702 SCSI Cable Error Detected, System Board System Halted".
I disconnected all SCSI cables from their adapters, but the system still halts during boot. I even tried removing the SCSI add on card, but it didn't help. This has to do with the SCSI adapter built onto the riser board. I am not using it so is there a way to disable it completely? I am not able to get past the SCSI BOOS, so I cannot run a diagnostics/configuration disk at all.
Any ideas? HEEEELP!
I noticed that someone else has the same problem with no solution.
Please and thank you for your help.

Re: 1702 Cable error

Terminate the SCSI adapter on the board. Attach a cable with a terminator and plug it into the port on the riser board and you should be okay. I don't know of any way to disable this even from the BIOS. Good luck.
