The tpx version indicates that you made the .tpr file with an older version than 
the one you are using to run the simulation.  That's not necessarily a problem, 
but .mdp settings and algorithms change between versions.

The second message is related to your problem before - your hardware can handle 
a better acceleration (AVX) but your compiler is too old to make use of it, so 
you had to downgrade to SSE4.1.  A new compiler will allow you to use the better 
acceleration.
