World Files Not Recognised

I am trying to insert Geo-referenced TIF files into Map 2013 but the associated World files are not being found/recognised even though they are in the same directory as the image. I have tried both TAB and TFW using MAPIINSERTand Data Connect.
Going back to Map 2012, which we still have in the office, the World files are found and correlated correctly with both of the above World file types and Map commands.
I can do what I need to do in 2012 for the moment but has anyone else had this problem?

Try to embed the .TFW file in the header of your .TIF, by means of the free GeoTiffExaminer tool, sir.

Thanks for the tip, it's a nice tool and has provided a work round for the problem I'm having although I'd still like to know why Map was not finding the world files.

As noted in my first post these are both found and used by Map 2012 to locate the raster file correctly but not by Map 2013 - hopefully thwe layout of the contents isn't lost in the formatting of the post
Contents of TFW file are
1.000000000000000
0.000000000000000
0.000000000000000

335000.500000000000000
134999.500000000000000
And contents of TAB file are
!table
!version 300
!charset WindowsLatin1
Definition Table
File "ST33SE.TIF"
Type "RASTER"

Are you REALLY sure that .TFW file name is ST33SE like its own TIFF ?
If so, erase or move the original .TFW anywhere, then with GeoTiffExaminer recreate it from the Geotiff already existing, and try again in Map2013.
