Hi, I meet the same problem too. I was following the tutorial on AMBER website, and I never manage to put the whole DNA into the box. I am using amber 8, Portland Group compiler, and AMD opteron. David A. Case just told me that the PGC should be the reason. Are you using PGC too? --Qiuting Hong ----- Original Message ---- From: Thomas Cheatham III <tec3_at_utah.edu> To: amber_at_scripps.edu Sent: Wednesday, April 2, 2008 9:54:46 AM Subject: Re: AMBER: Protein rotating out of box > Thanks for your comments.
