Dear Niel,
Thanks for your reply. For both, pmemd and pmemd.cuda, Volume went from
~730000 to ~640000 in 200 ps during equilibration. Pmemd continues working
up to 500 ps as specified, pmemd.cuda does not. No error message to be
found. I also tried pmemd.cuda with an additional 50ps NVT equilibration
before the NPT eq., but no luck there. I also tried the default barostat
instead of Monte Carlo.
Is there anything else I could try?
This is my GPU:

Hi Andreas,
Just a guess here, but is there any chance the volume is changing
significantly during equilibration? If that is the case, you might see the
error message I've copied below. Sometimes I've missed that message if
stdout/stderr is redirected in a non-standard way (ie, batch/queue system).
Best,
