I experiment the same problem for a few, on may Dell Studio 1558 laptop.

Am friday 20th of august  i was working on Windows Seven When a Dell update was applied without I should agree or disagree. After reboot I got  also the message :
"no module name found.
Aborted. Press any key to exit"

I wasn't able to get the GRUB menu to launch neither Ubuntu (10.04
+updates , amd64, setted up on dual booth with default options of the
live CD) nor Seven.

Using a live-USB, I succeeded to restore the grub install using
sudo mkdir /media/ubuntu
sudo mount /dev/sda5    # sd5 6 is the partition where is my root of Ubuntu
sudo grub-install --root-directory /media/ubuntu /dev/sda

My partitions are 
/dev/sda1     Dell Utility
/dev/sda2 *   "RECOVERY"  [sudo os-prober returns : Windows 7 (loader)]
/dev/sda3     OS [Windows 7 directory]      
/dev/sda5     Ubuntu root directory [sudo os-prober returns : Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS]
/dev/sda6     swap
/dev/sda7     Home directory for Ubuntu
(...)

Each time I'm using Windows I had tio restore grub after rebooting. Even
after an hibernation.

Lots of people seem having the same problem as you can read on
ubuntuforums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1343851)

I hope to to find something better as the workaround to remove Dell
utility backup or  to restore grub2 each time...
