Hi Mahmoud

I suspect this a problem with your initial structure more than it is a
problem with the restraints. Have you tried it without the restraints?

Did you minimize properly? Have you checked the structure to make sure
it is reasonable?

I would suggest, as a test, turning off shake, setting dt=0.0005 and
running 500 steps with ntpr=1 and ntwx=1 and then visualizing this. In
this way you should be able to work out where the structural problems
are so you can fix them.

Good luck
Ross
