You might try shooting with the camera set on manual IF you can read the aperture and shutter speed settings. But, the fact is...if you can't access your menu the camera is one-step from being totally useless. You need to contact Nikon support to see if it might be possible to fix the problem by downloading the current firmware version. Unfortunately, I think his situation will require sending the camera to an authorized Nikon service center for a repair but contact Nikon support first at www.Nion.com.
What is the exact problem? Is the device not working properly? Did you try to charge it, exchange the battery, test it on a different device? Give us more info.
The green LED is called the memory acces lamp. When you switch off the camera is will write back the last changes. when you switch the camera on and off, the light ususaly will stay off, because nothing has changed. When you remove the card en put in another the LED will flash again. At least my D7000 with 2 card slots will do so, because someting changed and the system will write that into the memory.
Could you be a little more specific about "does not work"? Does the lens not fit? Can you not view through the lens when it's attached? Does it not autofocus? Does it not meter the exposure properly?
On the D90, set Custom Setting F1 to "Both". When turning on the camera, turn the switch two notches, past the "On" position to the backlight position before releasing it. This will bring up the information screen.
On the D7000, set Custom Setting F1 to "backlight and information display". Turn the camera on the same way.
It's not quite as convenient as having the information display come up automatically, but you should be able to train yourself to turn the camera on by turning the switch all the way.

If lens continues to work in your D90, then the issue is with your D7000 camera. U might want to contact Nikon to see if there is some sort of reset available for the electronics.
Also make sure that lens contacts are clean and free of dirt, etc.
Lens motor(inside the lens) could be damaged already. The D40x focusing system is dependent on the lens, just like any other Nikon Dx camera except for the ones that has built-in motor to its body, e.g. D90, D7000. Try a different lens, most likely it should work
