It's entirely microsofts fault.
Your iPad records data on which way up the device was when the photo was taken. It codes this data in the image file for another device to use to correct orientation just like your iPad does.

Sadly, Microsoft choose to ignore this encoded data and so the image will often be incorrectly orientated.

The fix is thankfully very very simple.

Take photos in only landscape orientation with your round home button on the right hand side.

Hey presto, photos will be correct orientation on any windows based system :D

This is how I do it on my iPad 4.
Go into photos and select the picture you want to rotate
Select "edit"
On the left hand toolbar select the rotate icon, (2nd icon down)
Another icon will appear in the top left hand corner with a curved arrow,this will allow you to rotate the picture through 90 degree increments.
When you have changed the orientation select done and it will be saved in that orientation.
