does radeon read framebuffer under windows and of course epsxe?

I'm not sure about framebuffer and radeon 32 sdr, i'm actually playing legend of dragon, i'm using pete opengl (last version) and i had to switch the framebuffer option to 0 (emulated vram) to see the dissolve effects and some special effects in the battles.

I'm wondering if that's just a problem of the plugin or is something about the card, 'couse soon i will have ff9 and chrono cross and do i have to use always emulated vram?

Does anyone have the radeon and get a fix for that?
Becouse the game in some parts gets a big slow down if i use the emulated vram (i have a duron 800mhz and 192mb ram)

Tnx in advance

edit: I did manage to make the radeon reads framebuffer under linux...so i guess that the card is able to do that...
