I have this set up in my machine.  I have the IDE (2) as master and slave.  Then 2 
SCSI drive 
in the machine.  If I loose my CMOS the bios will DEFAULT to the IDE drives.  Then the 
machine will
not boot.  Now if I go into the bios and state that the SCSI drive is the boot then it 
is OK.  In most current
machines it will ALWAYS take the IDE as default.  You need to tell it that SCSI is the 
boot disk.
It is kind of pain in the back side, but it is the way it was set.

Try going into the BIOS and see if you have options for it.  If you need help let me 
know, I will see what
I can do.  Get me off the list.
