Be careful with this variable. Are you sure this is doing what you
want it to? ntf=5 prevents all angle/bond force calculations as I
understand it from the manual. If you want to use typical SHAKE,
which is implied by your 0.002 timestep above, then you should have
ntf = 2 and ntc = 2. If you successfully minimized, perhaps this will
help fix things? If not, keep eliminating 'bells and whistles' from
your simulation (such as your cofactor like Carlos suggested) until
you get it to work so you can nail down what's causing the problems.
I just point this out because ntf=5 is a rather unusual value for this
variable.

Good luck!
Jason
