Dear Ling,

what you observe is very likely due to a bug present in older versions 
of SPM5 (in @nifti/private/write_hdr_raw.m to be precise), see:
http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/wa.exe?A2=ind0802&L=SPM&P=R26272

This is now fixed in the current set of updates:
ftp://ftp.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/spm5_updates/
so I strongly suggest that you update your SPM5 version.

Also, note that this error appears because there are directories in your 
  MATLAB path that contain images with the same filename than the images 
that should be created in your current analysis.
It is good practice to restrict one's MATLAB path to the minimal set of 
directories (do not use "Add with Subfolders") and, for example, not 
including directories containing data or SPM analyses.

I hope this helps.
Best wishes,
Guillaume.
