With Award BIOS you can modify the default settings using MODBIN.

You'll need to disable both IDE channels rather than set drive types to none, though, since CD-ROMS will still be detected, at least in some cases.

You'll have to experiment. On mine I can change the "security default password", and change the "Security Option" from Setup to System, but I'm not going to start flashing to see what works and what doesn't. :)
