Hi Joseph,
may be only a accidental coincidence...
One thing I can think of is an empty bios coin cell.
If that battery is flat, the bios will complain settings are gone.
Why would that cause grub to fail?
Dont know the reason...I only experienced it several times...

I've had it happen to me once too. In my case, the BIOS just went back
to default settings. The only real change was the loss of the clock
setting but it didn't complain, it just booted. After I replaced the
battery, I went back and changed my settings to what I remembered them
being.
Since then, I change that battery every few years, while the system is
running so that I don't lose any settings at all. ;-) Be careful.

Is there a way to backup bios setting to a text file etc.; beside special
Windows utility?
