I checked my backup from last month and compared the VM files. They
were not the same, and there was a new one - an nvram file I did not
recognize.

I restored from the backup, deleted the failing files, and all appears
to be well. I was able to boot the backup, which was "repaired" (by
Windows) for about ten minutes. Everything seems to be working well
again (whew!).

I cloned the newly working image, so I have two in case one fails
again. Problem solved...

Thanks.
