This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

Open the script editor (littel regtangular box bottom right couner), then scroll over to the right (where you see your error message) you might see something that tells you that the base mesh is not high enough to convert to sub-ds.
You should see a number that tells you what the base mesh should be for example 2460 in the script editor some where. Once you have found this new number go you covert> Poly to sub-d option box and the area where you can change the value from 1000 which is the default what ever number you saw in the script editor. I usally go a bit higher then the number Maya gives you
Hope I was clear enough... if not put the file up and i'll have a look.

// Error: polyToSubdiv1 (Poly To Subdiv Node): One or more vertices is nonmanifold.
// Nonmanifold geometry cannot be converted to a subdivision surface.
// To clean up nonmanifold vertices, use Polygons->Cleanup with the nonmanifold option. //
// Error: Command polyToSubdiv failed. Open Script Editor for details.
so I did what the script editor told me to and it worked, exept I got another little prob as you can see on the pic
