Hello,

I'm trying to simulate liquid water (512 water molecules) with SMW4-NPD 
polarizable force field. The NVT simulation looks fine, but when I restart it 
with NVE runs, the total energy of the system keeps drifting down.

 The time step I'm using now is 0.5 fs and emtol=0.01 kJ/mol/nm. Gromacs is 
also compiled with double precision.  Does anyone have any suggestions for this 
kind of problem? Thanks a lot.

Regards,
Yun
