You need to cut and paste the text directly into the message. Attaching
doc formats doesn't work well with the archives, making it difficult for
future users with the same problem.
Without more to go on, you're likely experiencing a system instability.
Your best approach will be to rerun the last 10-100 steps of the
2ns-timestep run but with a dcdfreq of 1, and then visualize the
simulation backwards to discern the beginnning of the instability.
Best,
Chris
