    Hello Lin, do you know this article? 
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC555740/
    It's simple and has a fairly detailed section of the high temperature 
methods. It should be a good start.

    I think one of the main issues you have to mind in a high T MD, is the 
explicit solvent. It is possible to mantain the water liquid under a normal   

    pressure even at 498K, I'll search my files for the article that reviews 
this stuff. 

    What water model are you using?
