Incorrect Si band structure

Dear all,
I am a new user of ATK. I cannot get expected band structure in the following tutorial.
http://quantumwise.com/support/tutorials/item/107-calculate-the-band-structure-of-a-crystal
Although I follow the tutorial and set the same calculation condition, I got wrong band dispersion (please find the attached picture). The number of bands is larger than that of the tutorial, particularly for conduction bands. Any response will be appreciated.
FYI: the version of ATK is 13.8.2.

The attachment is missing in your post. Could you please post the picture and python script of your calculation?

There is nothing wrong with your calculation, rather the picture in that tutorial is wrong. I don't know where it comes from, it does not look like Si at all...
The newer version of this tutorial (showing a correct band structure) is here:
