Dear FreeSurfer experts
I ran QDEC and got the following error.

2. The FSGD file (if using one) 3. And the design matrix above Attempting to diagnose further SumSq: Min=4.795832 (col 1), Max=145.206757 (col 5) The scale is much different between columns 1 and 5, you may want to normalize by subtracting the mean and dividing by the standard deviation.
Any help would be appreciated!
