I am trying to minimize a coordinate file and it blowup in PMEMD. when examined, EGB = nan when using PMEMD and EGB = -1828.4570 in SANDER. What could be the reason?

see below fInput file and results.

Thanks for any advice!

my input file :
minimization 01 - implicit solvent
 &cntrl
  imin = 1, maxcyc = 50,
  ntx = 1, ntc = 1, ntf = 1,
  ntb = 0, ntp = 0,
  ntwx = 10, ntwe = 0, ntpr = 10,
  igb = 1,
