Hi Fred..
As an alternative, not mentioned yet, you can use NAMD (
https://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/). If I remember correctly it accepts
the charmm force fields.
I think the documentation is way better...
they also have a mailing list ...
As a plus... you can download a 'full' version without problems.
