the procedure you followed is correct, although in general you dont need to run make_average_subject, as the default target subject 'fsaverage' is fine for most studies. add -target after -qcache if you did create your own target. per your questions, 2.2, assuming you imported the group subject

Hi Tim, the one run is okay, but the failure of the Talairach is probably an indication that the orientation information is incorrect. Because analyze doesn't specify the orientation, the info you get is just a guess. Bring the orig.mgz up in tkmedit and see if the anatomical views are correct
