You just need an x86 assembler and get all the details specs of how the chipsets works. I have a detail document for an old SiS chipset on an old board that will tell me the registers and all that I need to program in x86 assembly language.
However, no modern multitask OS in the last 15 years would allow direct hw access because that would cause all sorts of hell. What happens if you use a different video chip or video card. Then software breaks. Also, it become hell when you are dealing with dynamically mapped hw.
This is the point.... you will not have this problem, because you will have a specific graphic card, a specific motherboard, a specific processor and sound card (creative? :) ), and you will must use only that hardware! The Amiga 500x!No need to make software work for other hardware with different Graphic Card! That should be the difference with any kind of other Pc, because they will be programmed only with standard Os, and the OS will not be native and will can't grew around that hardware because must to work with many different hardware, and so it is not optimized! With Amiga 500x, you will have an HOME COMPUTER ( :) ) who will live at least for 5 years and will be used on all its hardware as was the original Amiga 500! No need to program different hardware, you must only create software for the Amiga 500x specs! Should be nice a dual boot for the Amiga 500x, with Commmodore OS and a SDK kit, to program directly the hardware! Please Commodore reflect very much on what I am saying about a computer as for example "my Amiga 500x", you could conquest a part of market on this way... use your capacity to create one computer of this kind and support it for years to sell milions of units, and not sature the market with many models, who will seems, just simple PC with a Linux distro PC... The difference between a normal PC and a Commodore Amiga will be that, and I am sure the old Amiga fans, will buy your computer, also if it does not have the Amiga OS.Think about it. In this way you take in the 2011/12 year, the return of a Computer that will be differnt from PC, in a PC to play is needed to change graphic card every 6 month or every year, to have good performance... with an Amiga 500x, you will be sicure, to have a wonderfull machine who can be used for many years without think continuosly to upgrade it...
On a New Amiga, you should must play every kind of game (but also software), directly from a blu ray disk, without need to install nothing, if you don't want. A new Computer with immediately approach, who is a Computer and at the same time a Console. Please Save Amiga philosophy! Give to people grown up with Amiga 500 and 1200, a new life with these kind of computers who follow the HARDWARE AMIGA SPIRIT! Thanks for your attention!

Poi se magari qualcuno mi vuole aiutare, è ben accetto :)
