Under the normal configuration the MSP430 device should not be getting hot, this leads me to believe the main device is damaged. This is also why you cannot flash it with the tool. Do you have any idea what could have caused this damage? Did any pins get shorted together that should not have or one of the pins on the MSP430 connected to 5V?
Due to the damage, the only way to fix this would be to replace the board entirely.
