have to ask you a couple questions: do you have multiple hard drives? it could be that the grub loader is on the second drive. It does sound like a grub issue to me.

Seems like 100% BIOS related.
I dont think you lost any data. BIOS could not detect the disk.

Solution:
In the BIOS section change SATA type from IDE to AHCI.
Also make sure you run your disk as SATA and not IDE.
reboot.
