Hi Scott,

Thanks for your reply! The instructions are those provided by the PSC, but they only differ from the Amber manual in that they indicate what modules to load and to disable mdgx. I checked the log files, and I see one test that failed:

FAILURE: check nve.out.dif
/jet/home/mag14011/amber22/test/pgm_512wat

### Maximum absolute error in matching lines = 2.70e-03 at line 189 field 3
### Maximum relative error in matching lines = 1.73e-01 at line 189 field 3

The possible failure seem to be simply round-off issues.

I’m not sure what to make of the failure. Should I be concerned? What should I try?

Best,
Matthew
