did you use exactly the same input file for
MD and minimization, except the imin value?
did you change anything else, like eedmeth, or use_pme?
are you sure you are using the minimized coordinate
as input to sander for MD? compare the energies
from the last step of minimization to the first energy
from the MD run.
