The "****" in the VDWAALS lines indicates that two atoms are collapsing on top
of each other (or something similar). Note that the energy changes from
-28,000 on step 70 to 10^11 kcal/mol on step 75. But even on step 70 you
have a bond energy of 213,000 kcal, which is way out of line. You probably
should check you starting coordinates very carefully, and run a few steps of
minimization with ntpr=1 to study things.
Note also that the biggest problems at the above steps are at SG atoms 5704
and 16034. Are you sure that you set up the disulfide bonds correctly in your
protein? Note that you need to add such bonds by hand in most cases.
...good luck...dac
