So the system crashed before LINCS did. Perhaps more energy minimization would be helpful? See what atoms/residues were misbehaving (when LINCS throws those errors, it gives you the atom #) and look at its neighbors to see what sort of large forces might arise. > > Am I supposed to change the rcoulomb and rvdw cutoffs?
