On my old computer, with xp, i could open up any .nfo file in notepad and it would all be formatted correctly and easy to read. Now when i open it in in windows 7, all the formatting is messed up and it's just long lines of text. I tried word pad but it did the same thing. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to find a nfo program?

Use an nfo reader.

Why do you need to open it anyways?  For a downloaded movie?

Just add the .txt extension.

Code:

readme.nfo
becomes

Code:

readme.nfo.txt
EDIT:
or for you pedants, you could just remove the .nfo extension and replace it with .txt, but I prefer adding it.

Try opening it with Notepad++ instead of notepad. Notepad doesn't recognize Linux line endings, which could be your problem.
