Change directory to your cgi-bin and type
mapserv.exe -v

Recently I had trouble on Linux, having both native INPUT=TIFF and
INPUT=GDAL. The gdal tiff support is more powerful then mapserv native

I check my windows mapserv.exe which I downloaded in a binary pachage, and
no INPUT=TIFF support involved.
