Hi !

For solvated NVE simulations use something like this:

production npt 25ns
 &cntrl
  imin = 0, nmropt = 0,
  iwrap=1, ntxo=2, ioutfm=1,

  ntx = 5, irest = 1,
  ntpr = 5000, ntwr = 5000,
  ntwx = 5000, ntwe = 5000,

  cut = 15.0, nscm=0,
  ntt = 0, ig = -1,
  TEMP0 = 300.0, TEMPI = 300.0,

  nstlim = 25000000, ntc = 2, ntf = 2, dt = 0.001,

  ntb = 1, ntp = 0, tol = 0.0000001,

  /
 &ewald
  dsum_tol=0.0000001,
 /
END
END

Greeting,
Hector.
