Default registry went nuts

Greetings,
Had an odd one this evening.
restarted the machine after a AV scan (AVG)
machine started asking me for a win password (I don't use one)
machine lost all memory of the video driver (ATI)
machine would only start in safe mode.
repeated diskscan showed no problems
did a registry scan using PCTools Registry Mech. (no new problems)
tried a restore but only had 1 point showing in the history record
(date time showed it to be the same time I had restarted after the AV scan)
so
I did a floppy disk restart and a scanreg/restore
(had a few dates from yesterday, picked the closest one to today)
System restarted normally..

Anyone got any ideas what the h&&& happened.?

Tks,
RTS
