Sasha,

Thank you for your reply!

The protein I am simulating is quite small, so I did not see the error
that you are experiencing. If you could send me your script and
prmtop/inpcrd file, I will try it on our machine.

BTW, my card information:
        Product Name : GeForce GTX 480
        PCI ID : 6c010de

And the cuda driver version is 3.1

Cheers,

Yi
