 hi justin,thanks for your replyTotally I have 6126 atoms (residues + DPPC ) I am using the same pdb file and lipid pdb (DPPC128) which is given in the KAPL tutorial.E ven tried it without adding any solvents to it, I am getting the same error (memory allocation).My system has 15.6 GB free space its aHP workstation with 2GB RAM.looking for ur reply at theearliest.Thanks in advancewith regards,N.Hema Dhevi Original message From:Justin A.
