Your USB port is NOT dead (at least, before the fault).

Open the 'Device Manager Control panel (Right-click My Computer: select Manage: click Device Manager in the Left column)
Scroll down to the Universal Serial Bus controllers and click the plus to expand. The yellow one is the one to look at the 'Properties' for Status explanations
