The SATA RAID is an Sil 3112A and the IDE is a GigaRaid ITE (not sure of the number right now). It is an nVidia based Gigabyte board, GA-7NNXP. I tried booting from an external USB drive and got the same reaction as the CDROM. It ignores the BIOS setting and tries to boot from the floppy. I have removed everything from the system, flashed the BIOS, removed the cmos battery. Always the same.
This is going to sound a bit out there, but I'd pull the power, pull the CMOS battery, and let the thing sit overnight. I know it sounds strange, but I've seen systems given a night's rest start working the following day. (Just had it happen today, actually.)
