I think you will find that Prof. Case's main point was not to use Divcon
(idc=1) for the QM/MM. I concur with him here. Rather than messing around
with different and complex minimisation settings which will just serve to
confuse the matter I would suggest switching to the internal QM/MM (idc=0)
and then seeing what happens. If you still have problems please post the
output to the list and I will take a look.
Good luck,
Ross
