Think you meant the sata_sil24 driver (it's a Silicon Image 3132 chip),
but yeah, it's unrelated.

From what I can gather from the ICH7 datasheet, when using AHCI the IDE
controller is supposed to show up as device 1f.1 and the SATA controller
as 1f.2. It seems like for some reason your BIOS is disabling the IDE
controller entirely in that mode, which appears rather wrong.
Do you have the latest BIOS for that board?
