Looks like you need to do more minimization, perhaps. Also, use the same
parameters in minimization as in MD. Then run MD in shorter increments, and
save a restart shortly before you see bad behavior. Start from the last good
restart and use much shorter values of nstlim and ntpr. Visualize the
trajectory to see if you can what is going on.
Also, try a standard GB run on the same system. The alpb option is very
rarely used, and it is possible that the problem arises from that source;
comparing to a standard run will help narrow things down.
The "***" when a number is too large to fit into a given format (number of
characters) in the output file.
...good luck....dac
