Yeah, I agree which puzzles me a lot because basically I uses the same
setting as previous simulation I have done.
So this time I tried to simulate a long Myosin protein which is long I
agree but the value looks too large.

(1) Amber version : Amber 14 and AmberTools are alongside the verion.
(2) I use mdcrd output coordinate sets saved over trajectory so the
outputfile trajectory is like mys001.coord , mys002.coord
(3) I tried VMD but nothing can be show from my trajectory which made me
realize that the trajectory contains too large values too.
I can only visualize the first 2 frames and from Frame 3, the value becomes
too large to be shown in VMD.

Best,
