Hi,all,
   The whole minimization of the complex with waters was interrupted,
because the net transmission didn't work well. So the minimization can't
complete. The following is the part of out file:
  ..........
  check COM velocity, temp: 0.000000 0.00(Removed)

 NSTEP = 243000 TIME(PS) = 343.000 TEMP(K) = 298.07 PRESS = 74.2
 Etot = -135776.3955 EKtot = 34230.4686 EPtot = -170006.8641

  Especially unfortunately, the restart file wasn't written when the job 
was teminated incorrectly. So I use the ptraj input/output commands to 
creat the restart file of the last frame. Then continue doing the MD 
minimization in the constant temprature with amber7. The input file is 
&cntrl
 nstlim=500000, dt=0.001, ntx=5, irest=1, ntpr=500, ntwr=500, ntwx=500,
 tempi=298.15, temp0=298.15,
 ntt=1, tautp=2.0,
 ntb=2, ntp=1,
 ntc=2, ntf=2,
 nrespa=1,
 cut = 10.0,
 &end
 But the restart minimization can't work well. The error as the following:
  ---------------------------------------------------
 APPROXIMATING switch and d/dx switch using CUBIC SPLINE INTERPOLATION
 using   5000.0 points per unit in tabled values
 TESTING RELATIVE ERROR over r ranging from 0.0 to cutoff
| CHECK switch(x): max rel err =   0.2738E-14   at   2.422500
| CHECK d/dx switch(x): max rel err =   0.8314E-11   at   2.736960
 ---------------------------------------------------
| Local SIZE OF NONBOND LIST =   20197851
| TOTAL SIZE OF NONBOND LIST =   20197851
 vlimit exceeded for step            0 ; vmax =  Infinity
     Coordinate resetting (SHAKE) cannot be accomplished,
     deviation is too large
     NITER, NIT, LL, I and J are :    0    0  103  182  183
     Note: This is usually a symptom of some deeper
     problem with the energetics of the system.
   What can I do to deal with this problem?
   Thank you for help in advance.
