When you open the file (>File >Open Table ) select File Type "Raster" This will
give you a list of image files you can select. When the file opens, you will be
given a choice to either "Display" or "Register". Select Register. A popup
window opens, allowing you to add control points (X&Y Coordinates) to the image
so it can be mapped.
BTW, I am using MI5.0, but as I remember, earlier versions worked in a similar
fashion.
