Hi Yudong,

I think I replied to your email incorrectly, I apologize to everyone if there is an extra message coming through... either way my original message is below:

"I had the same problem and simply commented out the lines that were causing this, it compiles and seems to work fine other than a couple of bugs that I need to report... like the restart velocities not working properly - I've had to use the minimizer on restarted simulations that were running fine and equilibrated, and only crashed due to another "Atoms moving too fast" bug that (randomly?) inserts a velocity of 10^35. I don't think these bugs have anything to do with the error below.

The file you need to edit is NamdState.C"

Hope this helps,
Bryan

Hi,

I wonder if I can get any answer to my question in this thread.

Cheers,

Yudong
