I dumbed down the system (molecule) to keep the potential pitfalls to a

a lighter molecule to see if that takes care of it.
Perhaps. Diagnosing the original system that creates a problem is probably more
useful.
Though this is "a commonly-reported problem", so far I failed in finding
past reference to it in the archives -- at least I can't differentiate
Searching "range checking error" returns 270 results on the Search page.
my problem with the one you reported, and another instance which turned
out to be because the protein topology was completely out of order (from
the hydro...@home people).
This issue usually results from a system "blowing up":
