 Dear Somayeh,
Generally, there a bunch of changes between versions 7 and 2025.2 making it 
hard to tell what the exact issue is. Can you provide more details regarding
- What hardware are you running on?
- How did you compile CP2K in both cases?
- Can you provide profiles? It might already help to run CP2K in 
ENERGE_FORCE mode instead of MD to get some ideas.
Best,
Frederick
