Hi Brittany,
Have you thermalized you system previously, using regular MD? Yu should turn QM on only after the system is stable at the target temperature using regular MD.

> I am conducting QM-MM using AMBER for my methyltransferase systems. I am having some trouble on the equilibration of the system for pressure and temperature using script eq_pt.csh. I used NSTEP: 50,000, dt= 0.001 with time step of 1fs first after running calculation for volume, script eq_v.csh. I then increased the steps to 500,000 to see is the calculation would converge. In both cases the system did not fully converge, as I keep receiving this Warning, shown below, several times. Also, the calculation completely ran in both cases.
