Hi there - this sounds like a problem that came up once before: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A2=ind0410&L=fsl&D=0&I=-1&P=10422 In this case there were two problems. 1) The bvecs and bvals files were made in microsoft tools, so they had spurious microsoft carriage returns (^M) in them. 2) There was no carriage return at the end of bvals If neither of these is the problem, then I'd be happy to take a quick look at the data, if you tar it up and put it on the web.
