My experience with KuDoZ is that they are junk, worse than PCChips...  I 
have one older board, the damn alarm buzzer kept going off, I eventually 
shoved a screwdriver through it.  The board is OK, but it took me 
forever to get a config on it that would work.  The BIOS had all sorts 
of bizarre functions, all of which seemed to cause some sort of hard to 
diagnose failure.

I jsut replaced it with an Asus / Sempron 64 and it is a dream compared 
to the KuDoZ.  Unless someone gives it to you for $2 or the equivalent 
in your local currency, I'd stay away.
