Go here:

http://sumsdb.wustl.edu/sums/directory.do?id=6585200&dir_name=CARET_TUTORIAL_SEPT-06

Download the zip file.  Extract it.

Use this spec file:

PALS_B12.RIGHT.STANDARD-SCENES.73730.spec

It doesn't have the SPM5 fiducial in it, but you can load that directly 
by opening the spec file and using File: Open Data file: and navigating 
to the Caret distribution directory, 
data_files/fmri_mapping_files/Human.PALS_B12.RIGHT_AVG_B1-12.FIDUCIAL_SPM5.clean.73730.coord.

Map to the PALS SPM5 Right atlas only, and see if you get better results.
