Thank you very much for your help. I downloaded latest fixes from gdal.org. 

Now it works with single TIFF image. It is right where it should be, but it
takes pretty long time to load. Now I'll try "gdaladdo" and report back what
happens.

My obvious mistake was that I thought (as former web designer) that it is
better to have a lot of smaller files than one big file. Is there any
"optimum" size for Tiff image or can I merge them all together or it depends
on my hardware?

One more question for Mapguide Studio users: when I enter DefaultRasterFile
location, is it really necessary to add files via "New" button, or this Data
Connection will always look for images in DefaultRasterFile location?

Anyway, Frank, thank you again and I will report back on my success (or
failure) with those images. Now back to work :)
