Not exactly an answer, but if this is a mosaic of side by side images, you
should just create a Virtual Raster Table (VRT), then you only have
1 file to load and can ensure the proj info is correct. To make a VRT use
the Raster menu -> Miscellaneous.

Now to try and answer the original question:
Settings->Options->CRS "Prompt for CRS" might work, however not
recognized vs no projection are different.

Thanks,
Alex



Alex, 
Unfortunately the images are all cover the same area, so the VRT option
didn't work.

I've tried playing with the settings under; 
Settings->Options->CRS        
but these aren't doing it for me.   As you say, not recognized vs no
projection could be different.
