Your vdw energy is very high, so you still have a bad structure, but that
doesn't explain that NaN for EGB.

Try an intial minimization with igb=0, ntb=0 (no water), and then turn on
GB. But you will probably have to post your input files, since otherwise
I can't see what is going on.

Unrelated to the above: you should use a cutoff much bigger than 8.0 for
GB calculations (try 15-20 Ang.).

....good luck...dac
