Did anything happen to the board when it disconnected, or was it truly random? (Where you in the process or testing a button/axis? Did the board fall and maybe short a few pins? etc.).
Based on your description, it sounds like the board may be damaged. If you go to the device manager in Windows, you should see two devices based on the MSP430. One is under 'Ports' and one is either under 'ports' or under 'HID' (or something similar).

Well, it actually happened when I was testing a switch; first, it started behaving strangely. When I would flip the switch on, the LaunchPad just shut off; the green LED turned off, and it was no longer seen by the driver station. When I flipped the switch back off, the LED came back on, and it was recognized by the driver station again. I was messing with it and trying to get the switch to work when it stopped working.
