Unfortunately, there is not much you can do to fix the restart file. You may
still be able to analyze the trajectory file, since it handles overflow
somewhat more gracefully, (although I don't know if that was true in Amber 7
or not....)
How long was the simulation? If you are getting very rapid diffusion on short
time scales (say a few nanoseconds) it might an indication that something is
wrong.
More recent versions of Amber handle this problem in a better way (although
still not completely satisfactorily....)
...good luck..dac
