Hey everyone,
Is it possible to power the MSP430 while it is connected to the launchpad without actually using the USB cable? Basically, I wrote a program for the microcontroller and programmed it. Now I want to disconnect the USB cable but still be able to power the microcontroller and run the program. We tried hooking up a power supply to VCC and GND on the launchpad and the power LED lights up but the program doesn't run.
Is what I'm trying to do possible?
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide!

Looks we fixed it. We solved the issue by soldering the external crystal to the board.
