Is this reproducible?
You could try to fork off a tpr file using tpbconv -f -e -s -o just before this happens and rerun it. It can also be combined by input parameters, e.g. too large time step, too infrequent neighborsearching etc., use of cutoffs.

Greetings dear Gromacs users,

I have recently been simulating a POPG membrane* in water (SPC). Several of my simulations after running well into the 10ns and 20ns are sometimes getting a "Forces for atom X are large". I'm rather unsure as to the cause of this situation. Moreover, as far as I can tell from viewing the simulation, the system _does NOT_ explode (as may be suggested by wiki.gromacs and some previous answers to this kind of situation). The rest of the simulation looks much as it did in the beginning.

I would be interested (and thankful!) to hear any of your opinions as to why I'm getting this message (or how to catch the culprit), and more importantly, how to prevent it from happening in the future.

During this version-transitive period, it's always right to report the GROMACS version that you're using. It would normally be right to be using the most recent version (4.0.2) if encountering problems.

Mark
