Usually in my experience this means a mismatch between the prmtop and
coordinates; when the coordinates were stripped, was "nobox" specified?
Are you sure that the prmtop and coords match? You can look in vmd or
chimera movies; if there is a mismatch the first frame will look OK and
then jump to the long bonded wierdness.

Probably need the "nobox" option on the trajout of ptraj.
