Update: Energia could update the firmware to get something on the board again. Now, I can detect it in the Gamepad Tool.

However, when I try to program via the GT, we get:

The program encountered an error: Error 5000
Gamepad Tool.vi<ERR>
Programmer did not succeed. Check the log for details.

Looking at the log I see:

tilib: MSP430_Initialize: Interface Communication error (error = 35)
tilib: device initialization failed

If I try the technique listed in post #7, I get:

Still no joy. My other two work fine. But, this is the one from the KOP.

TIA.
