Hi Vickie!
If you are planning extensive minimizations to low RMS values, use the xmin
minimizer, which is much better. For examples, see:
$AMBERHOME/AmberTools/test/nab/txmin.nab (for NAB)
$AMBERHOME/test/gb_rna/Run.gbrna.xmin (for sander)
I'm hoping to just scrap the ancient, ancient conjugate gradient minimizer
in some future release. It is enormously complex, and debugging your problem
looks both hard and fruitless: xmin *should* work better and more reliably.
Plus, Istvan understands the code if there is a problem, whereas I don't think
anyone understands the innards of the CG routine.
...good luck....dac
