2 IDE slots are rare these days so that's P35/45 and X38/48 out of the question. The only one i could find on here is the Asus P5N-E Sli 650i with two slots otherwise you need to look for a Intel 965/975 chipset board. You could try the B-grade section although it's pot luck if you get a board with nothing else or the whole bundle. Warranty is only a measly 14 days too.

you can get IDE to SATA converter cables

I dont know of a modern board with two IDE slots, but I would strongly reccomend this board:

MSI Neo2 FR

It's rock solid and makes my old Gigabyte DS3 look very ordinary.
