[AMBER] ntt=2 on gpu

Sorry if this is a repeat, my emails don't seem to be going through.

Hi,

I have been running MD simulations on a gpu and am having issues when
restarting. I have ntt=2 and when restarting on gpu the first step has a
temperature of about 2000 instead of 300. I have irest=1 and ntx=5 so
velocity information should be read from the restart file. The restart
files are there and have information in them. When I run the same
simulations on cpu using the exact same input files the temperature does
not spike like this. Has anyone seen this before or know what might be
causing it? I am using Amber11 but I have also tried Amber12 and I still
have the same issue.

Thanks for your help,

Sarah Graham
