I have a Gigabye GA-890GPA-UD3H and here's what I get when I boot up my system.

"Finding Operating System
Boot from CD/DVD
Press any key to access Xpress 2 Recovery"

Xpress 2 recovery the loads and I get Error 500 " IDE drive doesn't exist or all primay partitions are occupied."

After that my CD drive opens then closes seconds later and the loop starts over. HELP!

I only have SATA peripherals right now.

Stick in an operating system installation CD and install an OS. You don't have any OS loaded on the computer it seems.
 
No I don't at the time being but I thought I had to setup the BIOS first.

I read about disabling the IDE drive should I do this?

The default settings will work unless you have ram or a cpu that needs overclocked or possibly raid setup. There is no need to disable ide ports.
