Dear amber,
 I have used the Cap water , ibelly=1 and ntb=0, it can run normally dynamics in sander7, but when I use the normal dynamic *.rst as the input file for sander7 TI calculation, icfe=1 and clambda=0.04691, the VDW energy and Temperature will increase uncontrolly, then break down. I want to know the reason, for it seem that it will go normally with period condition system.

the normal dynamics input file:
&cntrl
irest=0,ibelly=1,
ntx=1, tempi=310.0, temp0=310.0,
ntb=0, ntp=0,
ntt=1, tautp=0.2,
dtemp=2.0,
nstlim=10000, dt=0.001,
 ntc=2, ntf=2,
 scee=1.2,
cut=12,nsnb=20,
ntpr=100, ntwx=0,
vlimit=20.0,
&end
--CUTRES
RES 1 1
...
END
END
the TI input file:
&cntrl
 irest=0,ibelly=1,
ntx=1, tempi=310.0, temp0=310.0,
ntb=0, ntp=0,
ntt=1, tautp=0.2,
dtemp=2.0,
nstlim=10000, dt=0.001,
  ntc=2, ntf=2,
 scee=1.2,
cut=12,nsnb=20,
ntpr=100, ntwx=0,
vlimit=20.0,
 icfe=1,clambda=0.04691, ntave=2000,
&end
--CUTRES
RES 1 1
...
END
END

the output file with error:

     Coordinate resetting (SHAKE) cannot be accomplished,
     deviation is too large
     NITER, NIT, LL, I and J are : 0 4 137 1299 1297

     Note: This is usually a symptom of some deeper
     problem with the energetics of the system.
