Since you did not post the system you are solving with NDSolve,
all I can do is offer *guesses* as to the source of the problem.
One possibility is the solution to the problem has a complex
value for some range of values. If this is the case, NDSolve
will execute with no errors but Plot will not plot anything for
the range where the solution is complex since it only plots real
valued functions.
