I minimized my molecule. No problems. I did an equilibration at constant P. No problems. I tried to do MD at constant V, using the volume that pertained at the end of the P-equilibration. The molecule did not stay centered in the cell, and by 3ns, it had moved completely outside the waters, which still formed a nice coherent box.
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
This is the control/config file for the md:
