I think this might be the Windows equivalent of a segmentation fault.  Could be 
wrong on that one, it's been a while since I've been on a Windows box.

 From the output you posted, it's clear that your system did not minimize 
properly (Fmax is still very large), and your PR dynamics are exploding, so 
mdrun is crashing.  To eliminate any problems with mdrun, I'd suggest building a 
system that will energy-minimize properly and try again.
