Hi Michael, I had the same problem too. It might be because of the type of scanner you are using. I added -washu_mprage flag, it pretty much helped me (I did not had to add a lot of controls points and so on so forth. You can go through the link below.

Hope it helps.

Hi guys,
We are currently trying to fix some errors in the white/pial surfaces where there are thin white matter strands by using control points, and are noticing a couple things:
- The resulting WM surface in the area of the CPs can end up too far
into the GM instead. Given that, is there any practical guidance for how to think about the surrounding spatial extent that is impacted by a given CP? i.e., How do CP's actually get used within mri_normalize in an algorithmic sense?
- The surfaces are being impacted in places distant from the CPs.
e.g., CP's placed in the left anterior temporal lobe are resulting in surface changes in the right anterior temporal lobe. And when I difference the original norm.mgz vs. the one obtained after using CP's, I'm seeing an odd pattern of intensity differences which is clearly not limited to just the area of the CP's (which would be my expectation).
This is version 5.1.
thanks, -MH
