If you view 32 bit TIFF or IFF images in FCheck and they are black and contain no color information, use the mental ray Image Display (imf_disp) utility to view them. The imf_disp utility is located in the Maya2011/bin/imf_disp directory. For more information on how to use the utility, see the mental ray User Manual available from the Maya Help.
