Thank you for your reply, Bruce. I'm running FreeSurfer using a VMWare
virtual machine on Windows 7. I've set the settings of the VM to use 2 CPUs
and 6GB ram. Here is the specifications of my computer hardware:
OS: Windows 7 professional
Processor: Intel Core i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz
RAM: 8 GB
System type: 64 bit

Please let me know if you need any other info. Many thanks for your help.
