Or a corrupted Matlab installation. I'd probably start by removing the matlab preferences file.

Sometimes there is a subtle difference between the exact message and the thing one means to have read (sorry, I have the strong impression, that this is not English anymore - I want to say: While it is in general a good idea to think before posting, for error messages it is the other way around: post instead of thinking.). Something strange happens, so a tiny detail may carry the important hint. Jan

Thanks Us and Walter! My hd is fine but I suspect something's wrong with matlab as Walter suggests.. Jan, the exact error message when I try to run (e.g. 'filename.m') reads as: ??? Undefined function or variable 'filename'. Thanks, Sundeep "Jan Simon" <matlab.THIS_YEAR(a)nMINUSsimon.de> wrote in message <i3smvd$e62$1(a)fred.mathworks.com>... > Dear teki, > > > 7.
