Please find out how NAMD was compiled there and what part of Stampede
you're using. Without this information, it's impossible to figure out your
problem.

If the executable and the related environment module were provided by the
TACC staff, you should contact them for clarifications.

Understand that the command line you pasted will launch two MPI tasks, each
of which will spawn 64 threads. So you need 128 available cores on the
node(s) that you requested.

For more information, look at the files notes.txt that comes with the NAMD
distribution.
