How about it that I get a positive potential energy for a system of only 
protein and POPC? Makes sense?

Thanks for your explanation.

The outcome is rather puzzling.  Fmax indicates the system should be happy, but 
the potential is clearly not.  A positive potential indicates net repulsion 
and/or unsatisfied interactions, which should not happen for a condensed phase 
system.  In vacuo, positive potentials are more common (depending, of course, 
on what the system is).  Check for voids in the unit cell.  That's about the 
only thing I can think of.
