What just happen? Grub read error message

[Brittany Fleischer]

I had a couple of blank screens which cause me to keep rebooting, I had to unplug the power supply plug a few times before I got anything. eventually it seems to work after. 

What do you think caused this problem? is it a simple reset that was required?

During boot, press ESC to get to the grub menu.  Select the recovery 
mode entry closest to the top and press enter to boot it.
Let us know if it boots.
