X52

[Feuerfalke]

If I understand you correctly, your IL2 crashed and took your windows to reboot and now your X52 ceased to operate.

Maybe a dump question, but are you sure your system still works okay? If there was a fatal crash, maybe you have some drivers damaged during the process or there was a critical hardware-problem that originally caused the crash.

My suggestion: Check out the hardware-manager for any other problems (e.g. unknown system components, etc.) Also try to plug another interactive USB-Device in the port you connected your X52 to. Maybe a keyboard or mouse. It's possible that USB-drivers or something with adressing the USB-port was damaged. I'd try to eliminate these possibilities before believing that your X52 was damaged by a windows-crash or vice versa.
