Dear all,
I'm trying to run simulation of 30 proteins in water using the Martini  
force field. I used water.gro file in order to solvate the proteins.  
For minimization I used the em.mdp file published at Martini site  
(http://md.chem.rug.nl/cgmartini/index.php/home). When I set the emtol  
parameter to 10 the system can't converge. So I used emtol 100 and  
then the system converged. I use it as an input for the simulation.  
The file can't be attached as it is too big nut I can send it if needed.
However, the sumulation crushes when I'm trying to run MD using md.mdp  
also from the Martini site. I'm getting the following warnings and  
errors:

x-axis and the second vector in the xy-plane are supported.

When I looked at the pdb file attached I see something strange that is  
happening at the edges of the box.
I can't understand what is the problem. Can someone help me with it?
Thank you in advance.
Regina
