It is likely due to bad contacts. Check the list archives for relevant discussions (there are many). Try a thorough energy-minimization of your system to relax bad contacts. -Justin > > Is there anyone experienced in this problem, could you please give me some > advice, I really appreciate. > > Best regards, > Tri. > > > ======================================== Justin A.
