 Hello,

 I had the same problem you have now. Everything was ok, with sander and when
I started gibbs simulations the temperatura rised to absurd high values and
the system blowed up. By shortening the time step (dt) the simulation was
stable for some more steps, but the final sollution that worked me OK was
using using SHAKE for all bonds. (ntc=3, ntf=3).

 You can try this, and see it its improving...
