Question : Problem: New ASUS P5E mob, POSTS but does not see IDE devices?

I am doing a new PC build (about my 10th PC).  I have the ASUS P5E, the build is pretty straight forward and I have everything fired up and I get a good POST.  However, my harddrives are both SATA and my DVD drive is IDE.  When I boot the system does not see any IDE device?  Obviously this makes it impossible to install anything since I will be using my DVD for my windows OS setup disk....   could this be a bad mob?  Or I've heard some rumblings that this mob does not see the IDE DVD's only SATA ones?  (which makes no sense to me)
