It is best to keep Gromacs-related questions on the users' list, and I am
copying the other members so that an archived copy of this message will be
preserved for others to use.  Please send questions to the gmx-users list in
the future.  You also have a much better chance of reaching someone who knows
how to solve your problem.  See below for my ideas on your situation.

It is hard to say what might be the problem, but it appears that mdrun has
already told you.  What step is this - minimization, equilibration, or
production?
Did you minimize and/or equilibrate your system, and if yes, then how?  What is
in your system - a simple protein, or some sort of complex system?  Without this
information, you will likely get no useful help.

Check the gmx-users archive for similar problems.  This particular issue has
been discussed dozens of times in recent memory.  Also consult the wiki site
(wiki.gromacs.org), specifically:

http://wiki.gromacs.org/index.php/Beginners

http://wiki.gromacs.org/index.php/Blowing_Up

If you need further help, it will be useful to send the message to the gmx-users
list, and include:
1. What your system contains
2. How you have minimized or equilibrated your system
3. The text of your .mdp file
