P4P800 HD list S-ATA versus IDE

Configuration:
P4P800
1x HD SATA (FAT32)
1x HD IDE (FAT32) configured as none master (jumper off)
I have configured the SATA HD as first HD in the BIOS
SATA HD has three prim. partitions (Multiboot)
IDE HD has one prim partition, used as data backup device

Working fine:
PC boots from SATA

Working wrong:
On application level for ex. Partition Magic or Multiboot SW
the IDE HD is always listed as 1st HD, 2nd one is SATA.
But the Multiboot SW forces a bootable (prim) partition
on the 1st listed HD and this is unfortunately the IDE.

Why does the application list the IDE always as 1st HD in my PC?
How can I configure the IDE HD as a pure 2nd HD?

Any idea? Who can help?

I had a similar thing with the 2003 edition of Norton Ghost.
The 2005 edition did the job.
