Hi Justin ... Thanks for being so supportive . I tried things as you said
and figured out that my slab is having problem with water .  I have one
more question ... As I am working with golp ff parameters .. and it's
parameters are fine for water . Like if I put one water molecule on my slab
..and run my system ...Its doing well ...but if I do same things with box
full of water ... its not working !!! Is this possible?? Could it be
because of parameters compatibility Or could be because of  my slab ????


Thanks and Regards
Lovika
