It sounds like when you had your computer connected to your TV you had the wrong refresh rate set on your computer. Is the blinking only occurring when you have the computer connected or when using different inputs. You could always try going into the TV's settings a performing a reset. That will purge out anything there and allow you to start all over. And the next time you connect your computer, make sure you have the refresh rate set to 60 Herts. That's the max an HDMI connection can use.

Try holding the power button down for 30-60 seconds then turn it back on that should reset the tv to the factory default settings.If that doesn't work usually in the settings there is a factory reset or unplug the TV for a few mins.
Hope that helps and best of luck.
