Description
If you lock your computer, SE5 will crash to a white screen. if in windowed mode, you can see the error box "Critical: canvas does not allow drawing". Dr Watson does not detect this as an error so does not capture any dumps.
I put this as critical since anyone's screensaver can be set to also lock the workstation and causes complete game failure (need to close in task manager in some instances). In addition, this does not bode well for laptops being placed in suspend/hibernate mode.

I'm encountering the same problem with patch v 1.44. "Unable to draw canvass."
