Hi Daniel,
I am running minimization in three steps, with PBC on,
1. all atoms restrained
2. only protein backbone atoms restrained
3. all atoms free
all with 2500 steepest descent and 5000 conjugate gradient steps.
and then moving to run heating and equilibration with following input
Initial heating and equilabration
&cntrl
imin=0, irest=0, ntx=1,ig=-1,
nstlim=100000, dt=0.001,
ntpr=100, ntwx=10,
ntr=1, restraintmask=':1-356',
restraint_wt=1.0,
cut=16.0, ntb=1, ntc=2, ntf=2,
ntt=3, gamma_ln=1.0,
tempi=0.0, temp0=300.0,
/
still the run persists with same vlimit exceeded error. output is;
