This is a generic failure message. Remember that you may need short time
steps to integrate systems at high temperatures.

A good debugging strategy is to run the simulation on a cpu: you will often
get better error messages. It's also possible that you are seeing fixed-point
overflow on the GPU. Running on a cpu may help identify the problem.

It's also unclear whether you have a periodic or a non-periodic system, and
whether you are running constant pressure simulations or not.

...good luck....dac
