I got DL when it first came out and just now started playing it. Downloaded the 1.4 patch, but during game play the screen will blink. It just blacks out for a split second but it does it all the time

Do you see any movies, anything?
Could be your Sound, Video and Motherboard (VIA) drviers, need updating.

I see the movie at the beginning but I haven't really got that far into the game. I also tried updating my wideo driver, but that didn't help. I don't know but thanks for the suggestions.

The problem may or may not be hardware related. I have a pretty good system and normally I don't have this blinking problem or the related laggy play. Once it did happen to me and I ended up turning off my machine a restarting and the problem was solved. We should remember that when DL first came out there was a big problem with a flickering load screen, which now occurs when the game blinks. If this is a constant problem then it is a probably a problem with your system, if it occurs rarely, I think it might be the result of the changes made to 1.4 and 1.5. I think Damn Snakes had a similar problem too. My only happened in 1.5.

I have black blinking too(v1.4), but it happens rather very seldom, so it doesnt disturb me.
