Possible to use IDE drive in Silver Strike Bowling?

I have a SSB and copied the CHD to an IDE drive. I hooked up the IDE drive, but still the only drive available is the SATA drive it came with. any way of changing it's boot drive? I pressed F10 at boot sequence and only the SATA drive is shown.

**side note** I do NOT have access to a SATA computer, so I can't copy to a new SATA drive. my original SSB HDD is messed up and need a new one. i only have IDE Drive capabilities at the moment. So, I'd REALLY like to make this work.

P.S. Took me 8 friggin' years, but I finally hit the 100 posts mark. haha.
 
Nitehawk systems will not boot on IDE. The linux kernel doesn't have anything other than the SATA drivers built in. So even if you can get it to begin to boot, it will lock up in boot. I forget what the message is that it says, but it will set there forever.
