    Somewhere in the Bios Setup Screen you will see an option to boot either
    IDE (ribbon) first or S-ATA (serial)
    You might have to look around a bit to find it
    Just select IDE and save and exit

    P.S. most bios screens are entered by pressing the 'delete' key before the computer goes beeb, some are F1, some Shift or Ctrl +F1, some F2
