I dumbed down the system (molecule) to keep the potential pitfalls to a minimum. One of the three atoms is just a deadweight (molecular weight 9999999.9) . Could this be the problem? If so, how? I'll try simulating a lighter molecule to see if that takes care of it. 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 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 "commonly-reported problem" is treated briefly here http://wiki.gromacs.org/index.php/Errors#Range_Checking_error.

If you've got most of your system coupled to 300K, and a single atom coupled to 0K, it's no surprise that your integration is unstable. Thermostat algorithms work well in thermodynamic limits, not for handfuls of atoms.
