In your case NBO may be alerting you that you do not have a stable "wavefunction." After all, you need a good set of MOs to read into NBO or it won't work. I'd do a stability calculation on your structure before the NBO calc to rule that out, before spending too much time investigating the error. Re NBO visualization from gennbo output, I saw the following post recently but have not tried it myself. Credit for this obviously goes to Wenli, but I didn't see a surname on the post. Only 4.3 version of Molekel can plot NBO. Plese use my NBO2Molden program, and then plot NBO using Molden or GabEdit. http://classic.chem.msu.su/cgi-bin/ceilidh.exe/gran/gamess/forum/?C392068e53NOu-7358-1231+00.htm Wenli Regards, Jamin On Wed, May 26, 2010 at 9:34 PM, sina rastegar sina_rastegar1979*_*yahoo.com wrote: > > Sent to CCL by: "sina rastegar" [sina_rastegar1979,yahoo.com] > In nbo analysis I have 9 warnings which shows 9 low occupancy in core > orbiyals.after which inversion of nbo labels with bd occurs. > > WARNING: 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on B 7 > 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on B 8 > 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on B10 > 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on B12 > 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on B16 > 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on B17 > 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on B19 > 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on B20 > 1 low occupancy (<0.9990e) core orbital found on Na21 > > --- Apparent excited state configuration --- > The following "inverted" NBO labels reflect the actual hybrid overlap: > > NBO 432 has been relabelled BD > > NBO 442 has been relabelled BD > > NBO 450 has been relabelled BD > > Unable to label the NBOs properly: 64 unstarred orbitals > 61 occupied orbitals > Error > Error termination via Lnk1e in /root/g03/l607.exe at Thu May 27 14:41:42 > 2010. > Job cpu time: 0 days 1 hours 19 minutes 32.4 seconds. > File lengths (MBytes): RWF= 209 Int= 0 D2E= 0 Chk= 23 > Scr= 1 > > I would appreciate your suggestions. > Also I use GenNBO.5 and I could not find free NBOview or any free orbital > viewer software.could anybody introduce a software or a link for free > download? > > with my best regards to ccl.net & all subscribers.> > > -- Jamin L Krinsky, Ph.D. Molecular Graphics and Computation Facility 175 Tan Hall, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720 jamink _ berkeley.edu, 510-643-0616 http://glab.cchem.berkeley.edu --000feaf20b090a520e0487958ee6 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi Sina,

I would appreciate your suggestions.
Also I use GenNBO.5 and I could not find free NBOview or any free orbital v= iewer software.could anybody introduce a software or a link for free downlo= ad?
