PSpice Non-Inverting Opamp Simulation Convergence Error

Hello,

I'm trying to model a very basic non-inverting amplifier using a Burr-Brown OPA134 opamp using OrCAD PSpice A/D 10.0 Demo, freely available from OrCAD's website.

I have zipped my design and put it up on:

The model uses an OPA134, created by following the instructions at:

and using the SPICE model provided by TI for the OPA134.

The model also uses a 1k and a 10k resistor for the feedback network and a VAC source (Vac = 1, Vdc = 0) as input to the non-inverting input of the opamp.

I have played around with the simulation of this circuit for a while now, but I keep getting the following (entire PSpice output file follows):

What could the problem be?
