from the Q&A:
Are there any demo boards or motherboards you recommend as a reference for customers?

Ans.:
It’s recommended for customers to refer to the motherboards of ASUS/P3C200, Gigabyte/6WXM7,etc, where IT8888 is embedded.

no special driver or something.

cannot find anything special here aither for bios. The chip itself has fixed clock frequencies. Can you test this thing in another older system to see if it is working at all?
