String operations are usually made by movsb/movsw/movsd (which stands for mov string byte/word/...) together with ESI and EDI as Source Index and Destination Index ...

Does the string actually change when you debug it?

Could you probably provide some more information about what the string displays and why you need it?

Values like these may get loaded on target startup. Try leaving the debugger running while entering and exiting the pause menu etc. or completing a mission/level etc.. If that doesn't work, you may be able to analyze the data structure and use a different value/offset for your injection point.
