If I were you, I would uninstall this version (which is outdated by nearly 2 
years!) and get version 4.5.1.  Installing from source is quite easy.  Not only 
will you benefit from hundreds of bug fixes and enhancements, but running in 
parallel on a multi-core machine is no longer MPI-dependent, making it somewhat 
easier.

For usage and instructions, see the manual and any of the numerous tutorials 
linked here:
