Hi Ross,
My addles input seems OK to me...
file rprm name=(BCDOP.top) read
file rcrd name=(BCDOP.crd) pack=2 read
file wprm name=(BCDOP_NEB.top) wovr
file wcrd name=(BCDOP_NEB.crd) wovr
action
~ use original mass
omass
pimd
~ make 20 copies of atom 1 to 244 (the whole system)
space numc=20 pick #prt 1 244 done
*EOD

I sent you last week my top and crd on your personal email adress.
Did you receive them ?
Regards,
Chris
