sometimes the system is caught in a deep and steep energy well with wide barriers so that the assignment of new velocities also doesn't work. if the system is constructed from a previous simulation, find a few time frames before and re-construct. otherwise i suppose you could identify the faulty atom and delete the nearest water molecule. cheers, marc -- Marc F.
