        This graphics issue has plagued me since day one, and has been reported before. If you minimize the window (without closing) and then return it to normal size, the graphics will reset perfectly and will not glitch again for the remainder of that play-session. You will need to do this again every time you play the game, though. But this should happen only once when you load the game, about five minutes in, as you have noted. Once you minimize and restore the window you should be able to play for any length of time without any other graphics whiteouts, at least that's how I've always handled it. Never could figure out why it does this a few minutes into every play-session, but since the fix is so easy I've never worried much about it.

            If you're playing in full screen mode, you may need to swap the graphics mode to 'windowed' from the controls menu to play. That's this -->[​IMG] tab on the menu screen. Looking at the wiki the default mode is apparently 'Windowed Borderless', which if so should be changed to just 'Windowed' so that you have size controls like any other PC window. In a windowed mode, you just minimize the window from the upper right of the window edge itself. (You said this was a PC version, I'm giving instructions for a Windows OS PC-- if you're on Linux/Mac the window controls may vary.) Once you minimize it, click the minimized window again from the control bar to re-open it back to full size and the graphics should be back to normal for the rest of that playing session.
