Mark:
Thank you for your reply!
I have checked my topology file of the ATP, I think there isn't any problem with it. When I do the grompp (only use the ATP molecule), there is not any warning and error, it stopped at 14th step, and return the following messege:

Step=    0, Dmax= 1.0e-02 nm, Epot= -1.88000e+04 Fmax= 1.71469e+04, atom= 421
Step=   14, Dmax= 1.2e-06 nm, Epot=          nan Fmax= 1.59347e+04, atom= 4214
Stepsize too small, or no change in energy.
Converged to machine precision,
but not to the requested precision Fmax < 1

it's really strange for "Epot = nan". I think maybe there are something wrong with it even it said "Converged to machine precision".
But when I do the full MD Simulation (not energy minimization), the program said "Fatal error:Number of grid cells is zero. Probably the system and box collapse d"!!! (there also isnot any warning and error in grompp). I think the problem maybe caused by the energy minimization step, but I really don't know why!
