hmm, perhaps not exactly but an ahd driver thing because I 
am aware of similare problems with the adaptec card as in 
certain Asus MBs in combination with certain PCI cards 
there is a IO address conflictand the board do not boot, 
and when using memory remapping with 4GB then the ahd 
driver panics. Using in this cases a LSI adapter the 
problem goes away.

you are saying booting from an IDE it works but need to 
disable the SCSI adaptor?
