Lets talk about my further experiments with this problem I had.
I have since gotten the original Gran Turismo 5 game to run with some crashes and slow downs on the most up to date version of RPCS3 as of today. 3 July 2024
I started by downloading the version for Windows 7 of RPCS3
I then discovered my Gran turismo 5 Prologue copy worked without intervention
I still wanted to play the original Game or the XL version (2.01)
on a recommendation from my workmate that also deals with emulators regularly, I checked that I was using both the US version of the BIOS and the US version of the game.
My version was originally denoted as WW (World Wide) but I dug a bit deeper and realized that pervious "discs" that I had dumped were from various geographical locations JP, AU, EU
once I made sure to have both set to US versions my "unmapped memory" problem was solved.
I have no clue if that can contribute to unmapped memory but that is what fixed my issue.
I also followed the RPCS3 Wiki recommended settings for Grand turismo 5

I hope this helps anyone else who has these issues.
