we'll need more information, such as where the pdb file came from
(experiment? what type, and how well defined is the structure? were any
regions missing?), if there are experimental measures of stability, if ions
are important, if pH is important, if there are any non-standard force
fields involved (such as a ligand), and then we need to know more about the
equilibration procedure that you used. finally, explain what you mean by "it
went bad". what analysis did you do?
