And the 400 steps is a nitwit error. I got confuse with all the .namd file I have.
In fact I make multiple minimizations of 1000 to 2000 steps. Taking the .coor output as an input for the next minimization.
System is big enough, 336 residue.
As far as my limited knowledge helps, I think energy value is correct. The whole energy goes quickly from high positiv value (99999999.9999) down to high negativ value (-17037.2175) stable at half the minimization.
One annoying fact is that the dihedral grows all along and stabilises at half the minimization. On the contrary, angle goes down.
If it doesn't help, feel free to ask more details
