Scanned slides/negatives problem with Office Picture Manager

Having recently purchased a slide & negative scanner to digitise my old photos I find I have a problem. Images are about 3-4 Mb Tiff files.

When a scan is complete the scanner opens the file in Picture Manager, however in some cases, mainly with landscape format images, all I get is a coloured pattern which bears no resemblance to the image.

If I open it in Picture & Fax viewer it opens OK

I want to create some copies of the files at a lower resolution for use in one of those digital frames which in the past I have done with Picture Manager.

Has anyone any idea why Picture manager cannot display these files?
