This is not quite a fix but more like a wrong+wrong=wrong situation but anyway...
There is a way to make games that are drawn to only a part of the screen look right when using nullPVR if you open the file "vs_hlsl.fx" with a text editor and edit some values. To be more exact, if you scroll down a bit you will find the following lines:
//x-=0.5;
x/=640;
//y-=0.5;
y/=480;
Now if you change the "640" to "320" and the "480" to "240" the screen will "zoom in" to show only 1/4 of the screen. This will have a positive impact to games that appear on 1/4 of the screen but negative impact to everything else, including the BIOS. You can also try different values for games that are drawn to only 1/2 of the screen etc.
Be aware that this is not a fix of any kind and there is no support for it. It is possible only with nullPVR and it's recommended to wait until the specific effect is properly emulated unless you really want to make specific stuff look "right".
