Thanks Mark for your reply, I run MD for 1000000 (2ns) at dt = 0.002. In both occasion, shutdown happened during mid night at around 7800 steps. I could not fix the problem by looking at log file as it does not contain any information regarding this.
Is it possible that the gromacs could influence the shutting down the system because of it struck at some level during the computation? One more additional information I would like to add here, I usually prepare all necessary files prior to full MD simulation in my system (windowsXP) and transform it to some other machine (windows2000) only for final production phase of MD run. Can it be the cause? With thanks!
