Hi Rahul,

That's a rather large box, measuring millimeters! And the vectors have 
negative signs on the diagonal elements, which is weird. Isn't your system 
exploding? I'd say something terribly wrong, but can't comment further 
without more information (grompp warnings?, energy minimization?).

Cheers,

Tsjerk
