Ayman,

As noted by the other writer, the problem is use of 32bit
floating point GeoTIFF.  Many applications don't support these at
all.  How did you produce these files?  Surely gdal_translate wouldn't
produce them by default from a BMP file as it attempts to preserve the
original data type (8bit).

Best regards,
