It doesn't sound like a memory-related issue.

No, you will not have to reinstall all of Amber 11. In fact, it's a
separate install altogether. See this page for instructions on how to
install 'new' AmberTools alongside 'old' Amber:

Using MMPBSA.py may solve your problem, or if there is something very wrong
it may provide a more intuitive error message.
