How big is your file? Technically you might not be able to load the file if it is larger than you machine's memory.
One way to deal with this is converting the file (xtc or trr) not to include solvent. If that is indeed the case, I suggest you create a group that contains everything you have in the simulation except for the solvent and then run: trjconv -f file.xtc -o file_without_water.xtc -n index.ndx You will be asked to choose a group - choose the group you created without the water. Now do the same to your .gro file (so there would be the same number of atoms in gro and in the xtc), and you should be able to load the entire "no-water" xtc without problems. -Shay _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of minnale Sent: Sunday, August 17, 2008 08:30 AM To: gmx-users1 Subject: Re: Re: [gmx-users] problem with protein secondary structure analysis Thanks to Justin for his prompt reply in .mdp file mentioned energy groups and tc-grps are protein and sol_cl . I am in doubt that first 250ps of md run it in npt condition later nvt till 7ns finally made into long .xtc file. I tried your suggested way in earlier post but I didnt get it. one more doubt I am having is If I load entire .xtc file which contain 7ns trajectory it didnt load Could please tell me why its not loading Thanks in advance.

Check the xtc-grps in your .mdp file.
