No one can help you if you don't answer clarifying questions. To reiterate
what LVTravel said, it looks as though you don't have the same font
installed on your Vista machine that you used to create these files. It
appears that the old font had the 3/4 symbol and the new font doesn't,
hence the underscore that appears in its place. You will need to install
the old font on your computer or find one that has a 3/4 symbol in it.

Otherwise contact the makers of whatever program you are using to create the
games or look for a users' forum for it.

From your writing and spelling on this post it looks like you probably
misspelled them........I would assume that English is not your native
tongue.

Really are you sure that you have the same font on the computer now being
used if you have transferred the files from a different computer? Looks as
if a different default font is being used by the computer.
