Description

### Describe the bug

When used with OpenBIOS on my Fedora 41 machine, PCSX-Redux suffers severe graphical glitches when playing e.g. the opening cutscene in Final Fantasy VII. Green squares flash across the screen before the video locks up entirely, although audio continues playing normally. This behavior only occurs when Dynarec CPU is being used.

I tested with the official PSX BIOS and the issue does not occur.
