I should also have asked if the machine dual boots windows.   If so, you need
to check step 3 of Dell's dual boot installation instructions (for Ubuntu, but I can 
confirm that the same steps work for Fedora):
The machine is multiple boot, but only Fedora distributions.
The upgrade of the Bios does not help.

3.  Ensure you are logged in as an Administrator and check if Fast Startup is disabled. (This can affect whether GRUB can pick up your Windows installation at a later stage.)

Open Control Panel (The windows key + X is a shortcut on all recent versions.)
Open Power Options
Select Choose what the power button does
Select Change settings that are currently unavailable
Ensure that the box marked Turn on Fast Startup (Recommended) is disabled
 
 
Upgrading Windows sometimes resets this to "enabled" (after grub has found the 
Windows installation) which causes problems booting Fedora.

On a Dell, it is F12 I guess.

It means, not the UEFI Boot
 
The bios may be set to legacy bios mode, or (like my elderly
Dell desktop) the system is too old for UEFI.

Also, a setting to enable legacy BIOS.   Do your BIOS current 
settings look like:
 
Boot Sequence: Legacy (USB & PCIe)
Advanced Boot Options: Legacy Option ROMs Enabled
Secure Boot Disabled.
 
No, it is
Boot Sequence
Advanced Boot Option
UEFI Boot Path Security
 
These are the headings.   Surprising there aren't values for the settings after the ":", but I assume 
the system is using UEFI.
 
Actually, all thses options have a sub menu.
UEFI
Legacy Option ROMs Enabled
Always Expect Internal HDD (setting to always does not change the behavior for the Fedora line USB stick)
