how do i overcome this?
even when i change the bias, it still doesn't works
could someone show me the correct steps?

I am not sure that pins 2 & 3 look correct. Check which one is really the inventing input and that you model/symbol is correct.

i changed the pins..

ERROR -- Convergence problem in bias point calculation

These supply currents failed to converge:

I(X_U1.egnd) = -805.69pA \ -722.90pA
 

You have no node zero, probably because you have used the wrong GND symbol. Change your GND symbol for the correct one or add a zero voltage source or zero ohm resistor from GND to node zero.

It works fine for me after correcting the GND
