Mark, 

The projection is UTM - 1983, Zone 10, meters. But when I open the image
it doesn't ask me about any of this info, it just wants me to click on
the image to associate a lon/lat. For some reason MapInfo is not
acknowledging that there is an associated TFW file.

Any ideas?

Eliz.

TFW files say NOTHING about the projection.  It just associates image
pixel 
locations with real world coordinates.  Until you know the EXACT
projection 
of the image, you can NOT properly register the image.
