If the fuse blew, you can solder another on top and it may be good as new. im not gonna endorse the voiding the warranty option, but it is an option if you think you fried it and dont want to wait for national instruments to fix the cRIO for you.

if you're pretty sure you didn't blow your cRIO, i don't know what could be going on.

For the love of warranties, please don't do this.
