Chunhu -
Seems likely to me this is a simulation protocol problem, not a
pmemd-specific problem. I will leave it to others to elaborate on how to
get through the various minimizations, NVT and NPT runs, with a temp rampup
from 0 to 300 in there somewhere (I remember folks are now using ntt 3 to
simplify this; I still do things the old-fashioned way myself). Perhaps
looking at the tutorials might help some? You say this is a protein G
simulation; there is a reference to dna in the second mdin that I presume is
a failure to edit a comment.
Regards - Bob
