You said it only happens on one machine once; does that mean if you repeat the procedure it's no longer reproducible? Is there a c:\grub.cfg file? If so, please provide it. Also, are you using drive encryption or any unusual filesystem feature? If you can reproduce it, what happens if you try: - Press 'c' to get a rescue GRUB shell - Run: cat (hd0,1)/grub.cfg does this correctly print the contents of c:\grub.cfg ?
