Then per my suggestion below, just run in serial.

Your system blew up. There are lots of reasons this could happen. Note
that pmemd.cuda does not have vlimit checks, so it's likely that the
simulation blew up in pmemd.cuda as well, but it just never complained.

You will have to investigate why your system blew up like this.
