Dear Freesurfer experts,

I am trying to run recon-all for a new subject, however I came across with this error 'Talairach failed'. The error log is as following:

talairach done
\n cp transforms/talairach.auto.xfm transforms/talairach.xfm \n

\nManual Talairach alignment may be necessary, or
include the -notal-check flag to skip this test,
making sure the -notal-check flag follows -all
or -autorecon1 in the command string.

\nERROR: Talairach failed!\n


I have read online that I might need to perform a rough coregistration for the input image before running recon-all. But I am a bit lost by which image should it be registered to... Would 'mni305.cor.mgz' be okay as reference image?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Kindly Regards

Peng Liu
