[Pw_forum] drho calculation

Ciao,

I have been attempting to produce a drho file using the phonon code (ph.x) for MgO.  I have succeded is calculating the dynamical matrix (after scf for q=0 and non-scf for q calulations) which gives accurate phonon dispersion curves compared to neutron diffraction data.
When I run ph.x to calculate a drho file, it generates 3 files (.drho1, .drho2 and .drho3) each about 220K  which contain a lot of numbers.  Following this, a the .drho file (shown below) is produced which seems a little truncated at 1K and the 13824*0.E+0 seems rather suspicious.  This doesn't seem right to me.  

Can anyone offer assistance? Many thanks
