Do not use explicit ions with GB. Use the 'saltcon' variable to add an
ionic strength/salt concentration to your simulation.

This error message is significantly improved from previous versions, and in
fact tells you exactly what happened. If you look at line 901 of your
inpcrd file, you will see all of those stars, which is caused by particles
diffusing very far away from each other. This is because the ions are not
bound anywhere, and simply migrate away from your system.
Also, I had a hard time understanding your email, since all of the carriage
returns were apparently deleted. If that is fixed, it will make it easier
for others to help. (Or am I the only one with this problem?)
