Hi Ross,

That was actually what i did. no ig option with ntt=3. but there was
nothing about this, in tutorial. also in the manual it says, if ntx is
less than 3 and initial temp does not equal to 0 velocities will
depend on this seed. but my ntx is 7 and my initial temp is 300.0. on
the other hand it effects the Andersen coupling ?? and that is not
given in the tutorials ? this is confusing really. Should i start from
beginning ? I mean i don't what i should say or ask...

best
peker
