Dear Justin,
The normal (non-annealing) equilibration works fine. 100ps of NVT and it
easily reaches 300K. There are no error messages.
Am I doing the simulated annealing correctly?
yours sincerely

Anything that goes that haywire is simply unstable. De-complicate your
life and
try to do a normal (non-annealing) MD and see if it works. If not, then
diagnose further.
