There is nothing wrong with this minimization output. The process completed and left you with a negative potential energy, which is what you're after. What might be more useful is a better description of what you are doing and the "faults" that you are getting during equilibration. What is in your system? What force field are you using? What is in your .mdp file? Providing this type of information will help us to help you. -Justin > Regards, > Lal badshah. > > Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com ======================================== Justin A.
