I'm new in NWChem software, I only have run very small organic molecules to try the software without problems.
This time I tried to run a molecule with 28 atoms using my laptop (Sony VAIO 4GB RAM, Processor AMD E-350 Dual 64-bit, SO Ubuntu 12.04 LTS in dual-boot with Windows 7 Home Basic). I compiled NWChem in Ubuntu.

To get the input code, I use Avogadro in Extensions/NWChem and I defined what you see below.

Geometry Optimization

Theory: B3LYP

Basis: 6-31G(d)

Format: Cartesian

Multiplicity: 1

Charge: 0

I'll try to solve it by myself, but maybe someone had this problem before or maybe the problem is just a little detail in the code or the characteristics of my laptop, and maybe someone could help me to solve it quickly.

Well the program starts running good, but after 8 or 9 hours it stops and displays the massage below:

Last System Error Message from Task 0:: Numerical result out of range
 0: ARMCI aborting 0 (0).
system error message: Numerical result out of range


In the output file I got this:

This type of error is most commonly associated with calculations not reaching convergence criteria

I share with you the input and output files, maybe it will be usefull to you to understand what's happening.
