Amit,
Can you tell us what video board you're using? I assume that
you've only recently started using VMD on this machine? I suspect
that there's something amiss with your graphics drivers causing the
strange problems displaying the structure. What does VMD print in
the text console when it first starts? Those first messages will tell
us a lot about the graphics configuration on your machine. I'd recommend
checking to see if there are newer drivers available for your video card,
as that tends to solve problems like the one you're describing.
Thanks,
John Stone

VMD does load it and shows correct number of frames but fails to display it properly. Even if I create a rep in graphics window and select all- it shows everything in white and looks like only the waters are represented even then. Selecting protein with its segname also fails to show anything. I have even tried loading the PSF first i.e. loading it and then leaving it highlighted in menu and then opening DCD file but no improvements. Is it a bug? or I am missing something basic...
