Hi,
I am trying to run a simulation with 1360 Tip4p water molecules and one
methane molecule (Box size: 35.500 35.3371 35.500 and Total 5541 atoms)
but I am getting the error:
t = 0.000 ps: Water molecule starting at atom 5433 can not be settled.
Check for bad contacts and/or reduce the timestep.
Have you done sufficient energy minimization? General information can be found
within the wiki pages of the Gromacs site, i.e.:

I am new to this, so any inputs would be appreciated.
