The pressure convergence seems normal. I can not understand the reason of this 
fatal error.
I guess everything sounds normal, so what's the problem? Is it observable in my 
log file? Also potential , total energy are finite!


 Thanks Justin.

Sincerely,
Shima

An instantaneous value of pressure is meaningless.

Well, for one, the system won't blow up ;)

The assessment of any equilibration is basically the same - do the observables 
of interest (temperature, pressure, etc) converge to the desired value?
