Pat,

I had something similar happen today.  I corrected it by running the
installation, choosing upgrade, custom, normal, and then letting the
installer do the X configuration again.  I had mistakenly changed my
video preferences, and the flashing screen was an indication that the
requested screen resolution could not be loaded.  It may work for your
problem, too.
