Have you used the image command in ptraj to re-translate all the waters back
to the same unit cell? You say that it does "not seem to be a boxing
problem", but I don't know why you think this. If the energy and temperature
are stable, there is probably not a problem. Have you done a constant
pressure equilibration to get the correct overall density? If your overall
density is too low, that might also lead to what you describe.
As far as I know, sander7 should have no problems with prmtop files created
from Amber, version 5.
...good luck...dac
