hi,
I am running a simulation of a membrane protein in DPPC bilayer. ii have 
completed upto genion step. But when i am going to minimize the energy of the 
system the mdrun crashes showing 
Stepsize too small, or no change in energy.
Converged to machine precision,
but not to the requested precision Fmax < 1000

Double precision normally gives you higher accuracy.
You might need to increase your constraint accuracy, or turn
off constraints alltogether (set constraints = none in mdp file)

writing lowest energy coordinates.

Steepest Descents converged to machine precision in 15 steps,
but did not reach the requested Fmax < 10.
Potential Energy  = -9.8290938e+21
Maximum force     =  6.7779973e+24 on atom 5591
Norm of force     =  2.4384918e+22

i can understand the problem lies in the mdp file used, i.e. in the Epot and 
Fmax. i have rerun the step using different values but with same result.please 
suggest me how to overcome the constraints problem. thanking you in advance. 
mdp file is here

integrator    = steep        
emstep          = 0.001         
emtol             = 1000
nsteps        = 5000      
nstlist        = 1       
ns_type        = grid       
rlist        = 1.2        
coulombtype    = PME        
rcoulomb    = 1.2      
rvdw        = 1.2     
pbc        = xyz
