I have a 2 gb Cruzer flash drive that is no longer recognized by
computers.

Was it setup with an encrypted filesystem? If so, try to reinstall
the Secure utilities (which won't work if you can't access the drive):

I've tried it in several and they do not see it and the
LED does not flash. When it was last connected to a cpu, the screen
gave me a USB overcurrent message and now the drive no longer works.

It's melted into a solid blob of silicon. Give up.

Its no longer under warranty so...
Does the circuit board have a "fuse" on it that could be blown? I've
looked it over and don't recognize one. There's a osc crystal, a
couple of IC's and several trans/caps/res units.

Just for fun, try testing the flash drive:

it's possible the controller IC has failed.
I have an Attache flash drive with a transparent case,you can see two large
ICs;one is the memory IC and one the controller.
