run with nan

	Hi:

I am modeling molten salts with simple ions systems, such as halides, alkali metal ions,alkali earth metal ions. 
I build up the molten NaCl model with some commands as in the input script, 
and I want to simulate it with born/coul/long pair potential.

Input script:

The atoms in the box are random, so I minimize the system before running it to avoid atoms overlapping.
But after running the input script, I met 'nan' problems at minimize step as below, and the simulation stopped at 
this state for several days, the screen didn't print anything again.

I asked for help in some schoolar forums, someone replied that he can obtain results as below:

   Iterations, force evaluations = 2 40

I don't know why my machine can't do the computatiom and the reasons of "nan". Also, I am not sure whether the way of 
building the model is correct.

Would highly appreciate if any advise!

Thanks & Best Regards!
