Pure guesswork:
Your old server is Windows IIS. Your new server is Apache. The former is
case INsensitive, the latter case sensitive. Your CSS file's name is
misspelt in the HTML.
BTW if the lack of a style sheet makes the font bigger (that is, the viewers
default size) then the style sheet is incorrectly setting the font size.
