This is most likely to be a problem with the font that is being used (which is
presumably different on the desktop and the notebook).  I suggest setting the 
font
that is used for the Bible explicitly (in File > Set Fonts) to something that
displays the text properly (the preview will give you a sample of how the Bible 
looks
with that font).

See http://bpbible.com/node/78 for more discussion on Chinese fonts (though it 
is
discussing a different font problem).  The user there suggested using the 
Kozuka font
family.

I'm closing this since it sounds like it is a font problem rather than a 
software
problem.  If changing the font doesn't fix it, then comment here and I'll 
reopen it.
