Dear everyone,
recently I've been trying to run a mixed effects analysis with SPM12b. I successfully specified and estimated a single fixed-effects model based on 12 subjects with ~850 vol. each. Then I started the specification for the mixed-effects model. After about 2 h I got the following error message:
Running 'MFX Specification'
SPM12b: spm_mfx (v4552) 18:32:54 - 24/02/2014
========================================================================
Mixed-Effect Model : ...ReML estimation
Failed 'MFX Specification'
Error using .*

The following modules did not run:
Failed: MFX Specification
I have 8 GB RAM (Windows 7 64 Bit, Matlab R2013b - not sure how the information from MEMORY helps in my context, if you need some of those let me know). Does anyone have an idea? Vaguely guessing it seems to be related to the size of the SPM.mat file?
Best,
Helmut
