Hi Francois,
I have installed the latest version of GAMESS (27 JUN
2005 (R2)) on my PC-LINUX computer. RED II has now no
problems with the new version of GAMESS.
I ran a GAMESS job for a copper.4H2O complex using
REDII's default optimization parameters. I has taken
about more than two days and finally I got my ESP
charges and a mol2 structure for the optimized complex
so this case is closed.
As a result, I have decided to upgrade my PIII-800 MHz
computer to a higher speed such as PIV-3.0 GHZ or
above.
I am now working on restraining ESP charges for the
copper complex.I plan on sending you another E-Mail
for that.
thanks,
Jenk.
