Are you using the Save for web option in Photoshop? It should work fine even in IE.
What you can try still is to save your background as a png (2 or 4 pixels) in the same way you've saved the image. Then set the image as a background with repeat in your background properties. In that way the background is saved the same way as the image and IE should render them the same way.
