looking at the energy after 400 steps is difficult to evaluate, but since
the energy is very large and negative and the vdw energy is not that high,
I would guess that you have a parameter problem. overlapping atoms should
give very high vdw energies. you'll need to look at your parameters and the
antechamber output to see what's going on.
it also might help to look at the inositol by itself since that will be
faster to debug than including protein and water too.
