Hello,
I posted a message about having problems with my simulation, and
followed the advice given by Lewyn of doing a longer simulation. I
just finished doing an 1000000 timestep (1ns) equilibration (constant
temperature and pressure) of my system, but still I get an error
message saying the atoms are moving too fast when I try to start
another simulation, this one to cool the system (using tcouple). The
end of the log file is as follows:

I'd like to know if anyone know how to solve this, since I can't
carry on my research without doing these simulations.
By the way does anyone know where can I get a routine for
calculating the pair distribution of the system after simulation?
Thanks in advance,
Eric
