Dear William,
Can you post the input files you used both for equilibration and the GB part
of the run. Also include the first few steps of the output file so we can
look more carefully. What happens if you run the calculation from the
beginning with GB turned on? E.g. during the initial minimisation - do you
get a problem here? Also do all the GB test cases work? And how big is your
molecule? What is you hardware (compilers, math library etc). I have come
across bugs in IBM's MASSV library on Blue Gene systems where you would get
NaN for GB simulations on more than about 20,000 atoms (vexp on vector
lengths of > 10^8 gives NaN's) but this is a very specific case. There could
be other systems that have bugs in their vector math libraries though. But
first of all before we jump to conclusions it would be good to see all your
input and output files.
All the best
Ross
